Hi,

A word by word translation would be 'houten schoenen', which makes me think of something like this.

Groetjes,

Frank

You could say 'houten klompen'. (I know it is double, because a klomp is by definition made of wood, but it sounds okay).
wooden = houten
shoes = schoenen
so houten schoenen would be an opiton too!
