Introducing Bass Weejuns
It’s hard to imagine a world without loafers; the shoe that has had a place in all styles and eras of the 20th century – from American Ivy League-ers to 1960s Mods and Michael Jackson. Traditionally a men’s shoe, loafers are now worn by both men and women for style and comfort, but Bass Weejuns is where it all began.
In 1876, George Henry Bass founded G.H. Bass & Co., a Maine-based footwear company. In 1936, he introduced the Bass Weejuns, the world’s first penny loafers that were inspired by a Norwegian farm shoe designed for ‘loafing in the field’. Originally worn as a casual summer shoe, Bass Weejuns loafers are now the smart shoe of choice for people all around the world. Accept no imitations.
