characteristic: the nature of Terompah

Terompah is really were amazing and valuables. The things that made terompah what it is apart from the skills of the maker, is... Tree. That's right. Simple, Tree and wood. The same thing :D I know.

 

Like any products, terompah also used tree as one of its sources.
However, not all tree can be used to create this masterpiece. The most general tree that being used are pine tree, Durian's tree, poplar and willow tree. Although not a tree, tyres are one of the components used in the making process. The elastic attributes that a Tyre offer, could help in producing a long lasting Terompah.
                                                             

Everyday, roughly 20 sets of wooden clog were made by the maker using this very component. The cost of making this product can be cut down by the use of Durian tree that is much cheaper and durable. A two in one package. Although different maker uses different component, the comfortable use of terompah and its rarity remains the same.
