Other forms: clomping; clomped; clomps
When you clomp, you walk heavily and noisily, as if you were wearing a big pair of boots. A little boy wearing his mom's shoes will clomp around the kitchen enjoying the sound he makes.
People in work boots clomp around, and horses walking on a paved street also tend to clomp. If you leave your snowshoes on when you enter a quiet yoga studio, you'll be embarrassed at how loudly you clomp down the hall. Since the 1800's, clomp has been used to mean "to walk as with clogs." It's thought to be a variation on the word clump, which can mean "a lump of something," but also means "the sound of heavy footsteps."
