After spending eight years learning his craft from the local cobbler, in 1907 August Johansson was finally ready to start his own company, which he named Troentorp after his Swedish hometown. From the early days using his windmill powered inventions through the years of technological innovations, he developed and perfected the production process to create his signature clogs.
Today, Troentorp is proud to say that August Johansson’s legacy, started over 100 years ago, is still alive in their factories. Though fully modernized to meet the needs of contemporary customers in terms of comfort and design, the knowledge and craftsmanship handed down through generations of cobblers are still visible in every pair of their wooden clogs.
