Chunky shoes are yet another Y2K style making a comeback in recent years, joining popular trends like wide-leg jeans and pleated trousers. And Hilary Duff just reminded us of a nostalgic style that you can easily dress up or down.
While out for a stroll in Los Angeles, the mom-to-be wore a pair of baggy jeans and a casual gray flannel with the $400 Veronica Beard Dacey Clogs. She added a touch of elegance with a pink quilted Chanel crossbody bag.
It’s not the first time Duff has been spotted in clogs: She’s one of several stars, including Reese Witherspoon, Sarah Jessica Parker, and Jennifer Garner, who have been wearing the style for years.
With a wooden sole, good arch support, and a cushioned footbed, clogs are designed to be functional and protective — all without compromising style. If you want to add a new pair to your closet, brands like Birkenstock, Ugg, and Dansko have cute and comfy options, and they start at just $42.

Bjork Maja Wood Open Back Leather Clogs
Duff’s Veronica Beard clogs may be sold out, but you can get such a similar style at Amazon for $75. The Bjork Maja clogs have an open-back style that makes getting ready so easy. They have a sturdy wood heel that’s designed with a rocker bottom to support your feet while you walk, and the rubber base with traction helps keep you stable. The wide toe box gives your feet plenty of space, and they’re made of 100 percent genuine leather.
Lotta From Stockholm Swedish Low Wood Clogs
If you’re looking for a spring break shoe to pack for vacation, these low wooden clogs are a stylish option. They have an open toe to resemble more of a sandal silhouette, plus extra support thanks to an adjustable ankle strap. The wooden base is supportive and contains a rubber sole with traction. And shoppers love how they feel on: “These shoes are so cute and comfortable,” one person said.
Birkenstock Boston Clog
Birkenstocks are another Y2K shoe that came back in style recently. Kendall Jenner is particularly a fan of the Birkenstock Boston Clogs, which are available at Zappos in five colors like taupe, black, and brown. They’re a great transition shoe, because unlike your open-toe slides, they'll keep your feet protected from the elements while letting your heels air out. Plus, the soft cork footbed cushions and molds to your feet and the buckle is adjustable.
If you’re looking for a new spring shoe, consider swapping out sandals for a pair of clogs. Read on for more of our favorite styles from Amazon, Zappos, and Nordstrom.
