The Last British Clog Maker

Jackie Leggett, one of Britain’s last clog makers, breathes life into a fading craft with her handmade leather-and-wood shoes—comfortable, durable, and steeped in industrial heritage. Passed down from her great-grandfather, this rare tradition once served miners and mill workers, and even the elite, while Jackie adds modern flair to honor its legacy. With only five makers left in the UK, she’s fighting to keep clog making alive, thanks to grants and passionate mentorship. Her 30-year-old clogs still walk strong, proving timeless quality—and she invites you to step into history, one handmade pair at a time.
