KM Clogs vs KZ Clogs?

[Kurt Meyer]

As i'm looking for KZ clogs I see these alot for sale as Kriegsmarine clogs..

Could anyone confirm them as KM?
I know the yellow canvas with black/brown leather has been worn in Concenrtration camps.

Here are 3 DIFFERENT pair stated as KM clogs.( The 2nd one has fur on the inside!)

Hi i have found some info on ebay.de please look at the object nr. 271307880542

So they are just a commercial pair of working shoes availleble for anyone who want them if I understand correctly?

Did the KZ buy them for their prisoners?

[48RMC]

I'm not expert but i think that these shoes were made in the first place for civilian use only what the KZ concern no idea but i think they had enough labors to made them by them self think about gheto Lodz with their huge production of military and civilian stuff (their are a lot of photos that prove this theory)
