About Me: Everybody over the whole world thinks that all the people in Holland wear wooden shoes. But that's not right! Only a 'few' people in Holland w
ear wooden shoes, about 5000, maybe more, maybe less, so only a small part of the population And almost all the people wearing wooden shoes are farmers or people in a nursery. That means that people who need wooden shoes for their jobs, have them as industrial clothing.Why are they wearing wooden shoes? Farmers, market-gardeners and so on are most of the time wearing wooden shoes. That is because it's very handy to wear them when you walk on dirty ground. It's also to protect yourself. You can wear boots of rubber, so you won't get dirty feet, socks and trousers (at the underside of course). But there are some disadvantages when you wear boots instead of wooden shoes!
