clogs?

hello all, this may sound a stupid question but I do not want to spend 100+ dollars to wrong shoes. Ok...School said NO CLOGS, NO SNICKERS... In my country clogs are the ones with open back (something like this

http://www.uniformdiscount.com/product.php?productid=17342&cat=451&page=1).

But now I see that this

http://www.nursesdirect.com/productxl.html?t_q=CD626WH

is considered to be a clog as well. So what should I get? I am little confused...I was going for the second picture (closed at the back-slip on shoe by Dansko). can you please clarify for me. Thanks :confused:

The first picture you posted is what all the facilities I've been in consider "clogs" (open in the back,regardless of whether or not it has a strap that goes around the ankle).

The second picture isn't what I would consider a clog nor would the facility I work for that has a no clog/no open toe/no holes in shoe policy. As a matter of fact quite a few nurses on the floors have the shoes in the second picture, I love them myself, but sadly I can't seem to find ones in my size :(

You should clarify this with your school. I don't think that second pair is a clog, either, but if your school considers it one, then you should really get a list of acceptable shoes from them. Perhaps you can print some out and take it to the department and have someone tell you which ones would be ok.

I agree- you don't want to have to buy another pair. They aren't cheap.

thanks for the reply...no school did not say that second pair as a clog, but on some web sites they are considered as a clogs and on some they are "slip one". Thanks a lot for the input!:wink2:

That is what i thought as well. I think I will go for the something like the ones on the second picture.... thanks a lot! :yeah:

I have those exact shoes and wore them during my phlebotomy clinicals and will also wear them for nursing clinicals. They were pricey, but my body is worth it!

I absolutely love my Dansko's!! Worth the money spent.
