Fashion is an eternal restart and the return of this pair of shoes is proof of that. It is very trendy for this spring-summer 2023.
We have spotted one of the trendiest pairs of shoes for the summer of 2023. Of course, there is the moccasin which returns for mid-season, the mule with a thick sole or a very thin heel, but also… The clog, and more precisely the “mule” version. Yes yes, you read that right. The clog is a fashion piece that divides opinion: while some swear by it, others hate it and consider it a “grandmother’s” shoe. Nevertheless, it is a piece that has made many fashion returns since its heyday in the 1960s-70s, then in the 1990s. It is this decade in particular that brings them up to date with prestigious brands like Chanel or Dior who make them parade. We also see the mule clog appear and we love its rustic and bling-bling side.
This revival for hooves is certainly linked to the success of the 1990s-2000s in fashion. Indeed, many pieces typical of this era are resurfacing, such as the XXL denim skirt, cargo pants, low-waisted jeans or baguette bags. The hoof under mule shape is also back. We like it with thick wooden heels and with studs on the side. On the color side, we can afford everything: flashy shades for a summery look or more neutral tones for timeless pieces. We think of the Pescura model from the Scholl brand, quite emblematic of the brand, which combines fashion and comfort. But other brands have created mule clogs.

How to wear the mule clog in 2023?
Many people like clogs, or mule clogs, but do not dare to wear them either because they do not assume such an original shoe, or because they do not know how to wear them. However, they are easier to adopt than you might think.
- Mule clogs with a dress or long skirt: imagine them with a long, trendy and summery satin dress or even with a skirt in the same material and a simple white T-shirt.
- Mule clogs with a total denim look : jeans and mule clogs go well together. We can easily imagine a colored or camel pair with a long denim skirt and a matching jacket or shirt.
- mule clogs with wide jeans and a basic top: mules clogs are worn with wide light blue or raw jeans and a basic top such as a white T-shirt, or a crop top and a wide open shirt, for example. Mule clogs are original pieces so if you want to adopt them, it is better to bet on a trendy but simple style. Of course, you can play the originality card to the fullest and wear them with other types of clothing if you wish. There are no prohibitions.
