I have been buying and wearing these shoes, as garden clogs, for many years!  They work great!  There is an elastic band around the back of the shoe which allows the shoe to remain snug while doing all kinds of gardening....weeding, digging holes, planting and transplanting.  They are also waterproof up to a point.  All in all I would recommend these shoes.  They are also very comfortable.  I can work all day in my garden wearing these shoes.  What more can I say?
