Classic basics, done really well at the price point.
Both the camp moc and blucher are made for Bean by GH Bass.

European members can get the Bass version here ( tho' it can work out more expensive than buying direct from the US)...

^ the copy on the website is absolute bollox.
Written by some PR somebody without a clue about footwear.

The design dept isn't much better, check out the crepe sole weejun- it's just wrong sad

Slightly more refined is this pair I saw on ebay (they're still there) with "gumshoe" soles

I've never seen that before on weejuns - that must be something from reasonably recently is it ?

Re: ll Bean get it right with the Signature Jackman Camp Moc

^ there's a few examples of a gum/crepe sole in the Bass back catalogue in loafer and laced versions, going back to at least the mid-50s. I had a pair of 'summer weejuns' from the late 60s which were suede with a perforated vamp and a similar gum sole to those MM, wore them to death tho' and the soles weren't replaceable sad
It's just those new ones look awful in the flesh, the combo of slightly plasticy looking leather and dark edge-ing on the crepe makes them look a bit cheap.
