Bass Weejuns Heritage 'Larkin' Tassel Loafers in Black Hi Shine Leather. The original Larkin tassel loafer by Bass Weejuns is a true icon of Retro menswear, blending timeless craftsmanship with rich cultural heritage. Made from premium hi-shine black leather, these classic loafers feature hand-stitched moccasin uppers, twin tassel detailing, and traditional side lacing—hallmarks of the original Weejuns design.
A favourite of style icons like James Dean and Steve McQueen, the Larkin remains a staple of the mod and retro aesthetic, steeped in Ivy Look and Sixties Mod culture. The polished leather upper sits on an authentic leather sole with block heel for a sleek, tailored silhouette that works perfectly with both smart and casual outfits.
This updated version features a slightly wider fit and a higher grade leather for added comfort and durability. Rooted in Ivy League cool and steeped in retro subculture, the Bass Weejuns Larkin Tassel Loafer is more than just footwear—it's a symbol of enduring style.
The original Bass Weejun Penny Loafer dates as far back as the 1930s. 'Weejun' is an affectionate adaptation taken from the word Norwegian, the country where such slip on shoes (albeit to a far less dandy look) were readily worn by dairy farmers. Step into the spirit of 1960s cool with the original Bass Weejuns 'Larkin' Tassel Loafers—a defining piece of Mod footwear history.
