Customer Reviews G.H. Bass & Co. Whitney Weejuns

Loved color! More pewter than silver. Alas, too much "vertical" space in these shoes. Length was good and I'm generally a medium but these run wide. Buttery leather is gorgeous.

Love the classic shoe with a hint of trendiness. And so comfy! High quality shines.

I wear a size 10 and am always looking for stylish flats that run narrow. I purchased the Whitney Weejuns in the black tumbled leather. I love them! They look great with jeans or pants. The leather is soft and the shoe is very comfortable. I've worn these to work every day this week (I'm a college professor) and have had no problems with my feet. They do run narrow but for me that was perfect.

These are extremely uncomfortable for a couple of weeks until you break them in, after which they are soft and feel like slippers. They are not as well made as they used to be. There was some uneven stitching on mine. I wear them to work on slow days. I have narrow feet and they stay on fine (wouldn’t want to walk farther than a mile or so in them though)

I ordered my usual size 8 and they were too long. There weren’t any 7.5s available otherwise I would have tried a size down. The leather is nice and soft and I think I would have got a lot of wear out of these. A classic shoe that I will continue to have on my radar for the right size

Very happy with this shoe. I am a 10.5 Regular on the left and a 10 on the right. I have a regular width foot and a wide toe box from German heritage. I lucked out with this shoe. Although the toe box is not wide, the leather is of such quality that it immediately began to mold to my foot. The only issue I had was on the right where the top of the shoe in the back rubs uncomfortably. I expect to break this in. Sophisticated and stylish. I tried another GH Bass in the same size and the toe box was much too narrow. It was also less expensive so maybe it has to do with the quality of the leather? Anyhow, if you have tried another Bass that didn't work for these reasons, this one may do the trick. Best to use a shoe horn as the back is, as I said, stiff. A good quality shoe.

The leather is supper soft, but it felt and looked a bit big slipped off the back of my heel. High quality craftmanship. I recommend this shoe for sure.

These are good quality shoes. I was really surprised at how nice the leather is. I took my normal size in shoes that I wear without socks. Unfortunately, the wide width of these loafers runs a little narrow. My feet are only slightly wide and I can often wear regular width shoes, and I do think these would have broken in with time. But the real dealbreaker was some very rough stitching under the top of the shoe, which I could tell right away would have torn up the top of my foot if I were to wear them for any amount of time. I wasn't sure that was going to break in and I didn't want to chance it. That may have been a fluke with the pair I got. If you have narrow feet and are looking for a nice penny loafer, try these out!

Love the color and quality of the sole. Runs big! The leather was very soft, which would normally be great, but the shoe runs big, which made it even more loose fitting. I need to size down 1/2 size. I wear size 11 and have a skinny foot but these were significantly bigger and looser fitting them the Sperry loafers I received from Zappos.

These are way too long to be a size 6W. I am a solid 6 with a wide toe box and so often have to try out the wide version. However, these are simply so long that you should not purchase unless you're going to go down a half size down.

I am a standard size 6 with a wide toe box, so ordered the 6W and the length was very long. My foot was popping out with each step. Beware of this sizing.

Runs big. Stitching rubs on big toe bone. So if you have bunions, shoes hurt this area.

The leather is too soft with the structure of the sole. I like the classic leather for these loafers

I love these shoes -- always have -- but I'm struggling to find a pair that fit well. I read the reviews and tried a wide in my size. Too big. Then I tried a half size down, and regular width -- too small. I'll try one more time for a half size down and wide. Fingers crossed.

I did not receive the soft tumbled leather that I requested. These are stiff and going back.

These are stiffer than the other colored weejuns and a slightly different style also, they go up higher on the sides, hitting my ankle bone. They also run bigger, cute if you are looking for the shinny yuppie look. Returning for cognac.

Nicely constructed except the foam insole is glued in place. The medium width is fairly wide at the back. It fell off my feet, as I have narrower heels. No extra room in the toe box, so sizing down isn't an option.

Runs small - had to order a 1/2 size up from normal, and the heel cuts into my ankle. However, these are sooo cute (I purchased the teal color), and the leather is very soft (they should easily wear in quickly), so I'm definitely keeping them.

Bought these to jazz up my jean and ankle pants. They are classic and the color is unique enough to be fun. I found them true to size and comfortable. I have other Bass shoes and they, like this one, are well made. This classic look is perfect for dress down Fridays, that allow comfort but keep the style.

This is the Classic penny loafer - nice sturdy leather shoe with arch support. The toe box is narrow - fit me fine but the heel is wide and I walked out of the shoe. I usually wear 8.5/9 narrowish - ordered the 9M. Thanks Zappo for making shopping and returns so easy.

I ordered the 9.5M in Cordovan Box Leather, which was nicer looking than expected. I was afraid they would be too shiny. Unfortunately, the fit didn't work at all. My heels were slipping --- not quite slipping out, but definitely not secure --- and my big toe was pressed hard up against the top of the shoe. You could see my toenail through the leather. It's too bad the fit isn't better; I really like the classic American style these have.

I really wanted to like these shoes - very attractive and well made. I normally wear a 6.5 W. The 6.5 W was too long. The 6 W was too narrow.

Too tight and narrow even though this is supposed to be wide.

Love the look of the shoes but they were too narrow. I’m very disappointed but back they go. Wides are not available.

I really wanted to love these shoes. I wore them all the time when I was growing up -- and remember them so fondly. But however they have redesigned them, they just don't work. I've tried 3 different sizes now and none fit. They are narrow at the toe and somehow between 7.5 (way too small) and 8 (way too big!) very different. I just couldn't find a size combo (with W and M) that worked for me. Also there is no support and the sole is much thinner than it once was. So sad ...
