g.h. bass & co.

Established in 1876 in Wilton, Maine, G.H. Bass & Co. is an American footwear brand built on a legacy of purpose-built, durable products. Founder George Henry Bass set out “to make the best possible shoe for the purpose it is intended,” a mission that first resulted in rugged boots for farmers and woodsmen. The brand's defining moment came in 1936 with the introduction of the Weejuns®, a stylish interpretation of a Norwegian farm shoe that became the world's first-ever penny loafer. This single design cemented G.H. Bass's place in fashion history, evolving from a practical shoe to a cultural icon.
