FAQs
Are these loafers suitable for wide feet?
The standard fit of Weejuns tends to be medium width. While suede can stretch slightly over time, individuals with significantly wide feet might find them snug. It is recommended to try them on if possible.
Can I wear these loafers in wet weather?
While the suede has been treated, it is not entirely waterproof. It is best to avoid wearing these loafers in heavy rain or wet conditions to prevent damage and staining. Always ensure they are properly protected with a suede spray.
How often should I clean my suede loafers?
Regularly brush your loafers with a suede brush after wear to remove surface dirt. A more thorough cleaning or reapplication of protector spray should be done as needed, typically at the beginning of a season or after significant wear.
What is the best way to store these loafers when not in use?
Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape, and placing them in a dust bag can protect them from dirt.
Do these loafers come in other colors or materials?
G. H Bass Weejuns are available in a variety of colors and materials, including different types of leather and finishes. Please check product listings for available options.
What does 'Weejun' refer to?
Weejuns is G. H Bass's proprietary name for their classic penny loafer, inspired by Norwegian peasant shoes.
Troubleshooting

Use a suede brush to gently brush the surface in one direction to restore the nap and texture.
Water stains on suede.
Allow the shoe to dry naturally. Once dry, use a suede eraser to gently rub out the stain. Reapply suede protector.
Scuff marks on suede.
Try using a suede eraser for light scuffs. For deeper marks, consult a professional shoe repairer.
