I have been a wearer of clogs for a long time.  I got turned on to them when I used to work in restaurants (had black professional Dansko).  After that stint I always had a pair around.  My oiled tan open-back Sanita after at least a dozen years just literally wore out.  I wanted a change of color and closed back so I chose these. They really are beautiful and very well made.  I compare them to the Danskos I flat out returned because they are no longer the quality they used to be (fit or finish) - which is not reflected in the price they are asking.

However I did end up exchanging the first pair of these Sanitas. The right one was overly snug and my left foot was swimming in the clog.  I took some crude measurements and the leather of the left clog's (not the sole of course) dimensions were larger.  I know these are largely handmade and slight variations are fine but shoes should fit.  I exchanged them through Amazon (at no additional cost) and am happy to report that this second pair is perfectly sized - not too loose, not too tight on either foot.  I hope to get at least a dozen more happy feet years out of these.  The burgundy/oxblood color is really well done.
