The Krock Sock Plastic Clog Liners are designed for plastic clogs. Plastic clogs are a great convenience - slip on and go – but they can be cold in the winter and sweaty in the summer. A liner makes wearing clogs more comfortable. Not to be confused with wearing plastic clogs with socks, the liner is meant to stay with the clog until it needs laundering. It should stand ready as one unit for the foot to slip in conveniently. When it needs laundering, the liner is easily removed, washed, dried and replaced.

This version is knit flat from the heel, increases to shape the foot, decreases to shape for the toes, picked up stitches are knit in the round for the sides, top of the foot is knit side to side working stitches from the sides, increasing to conform to the arch of the clog top and finally a cuff is knit to fold over the top of the clog to secure the Krock Sock in place.

Best in yarns that will not slip too much. Cotton seems to stay in place best, acrylics seems to slip more.

A word about width:
If your plastic clogs fit your foot exactly, that size is not a good candidate for a lined clog. There will be no room for your foot! If in doubt, wear a pair of heavy socks and try on clogs at the shoe store until you find your fit.
