    Clogs were worn to a small extent, but they had to be bought in the city of Limerick. Nailed boots with strong leather uppers are the popular foot-wear for all when working at home. Light fancy shoes are worn on Sundays for going to dances for travelling, and other important occasions. Leather wsa never made in the district.
