clodhopping
Heavy, awkward movement
Clodhopping means clumsy, heavy-footed, or rustic—like someone tramping over clods of earth in a field.
The word suggests ungainly movement or unsophisticated manners: clodhopping boots, a clodhopping oaf.
A clodhop or clodhopper is a large, heavy shoe or a boorish rural person.
