I live in New York and have never worn Japanese wooden clogs. I have a foot condition that doesn't allow me to wear foam sandals so I tried these - like wood, almost walking on the floor. I'm a man and I'm a size 9-9.5 so a size 43 was a bit small in length. so I ordered 44. My wide feet fit. Slippers slide on top - if you don't factor in the almost imperceptible dents in the wood, so they've been cut out!?. (see image). No bow support. Walking in them is unusual. They also make some noise.
