Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Rubber Moc

Updated version of a classic. This is my 3rd pair in 40 years. Fit is difficult due to the lacing pattern. Missing is the fleece (?) foot bed lining that used to come with the shoe. Durability: to be determined.

Bought a pair for my husband who needed a quick easy slip on when going outside in wet or slippery Michigan weather. Hard to find shoes that work for him as he has high arches and limited motion. There was a disclaimer when buying the shoes about sizing and I thought I followed the direction but if wearing regular thickness socks the shoe is too big. If wearing thicker socks, golden. Will draw the laces tighter to see if that solves the foot flop problem.

I've had three pairs over a 20 year period. Great for spring and fall out in the yard or fields. Not great for very cold weather. Sizing is crazy large. I wear a 13 in every other brand. an 11 is a little loose for me in these things.

I bought these to replace Bean boots used for many years and worn out. The mocs fit differently and I find my heal slightly slipping out vs. the boot. I downsized to 9 from a normal 10 to 11 shoe and sneakers. This is not a big issue if you downsize enough but takes getting used to.

Have had these rubber mocs now for almost 1.5 years. Just noticed that the threading has ripped and the back leather of the shoe has ripped apart. I use these shoes to walk every day in a grass field that is always damp. But I am about to order another pair.

I finally had to replace my 20- plus year old Mocs. I ordered the size recommended by the fitting chart after speaking to customer service. I called them because my old Mocs were size 10 and the recommendation was size. The 12's were too big, so I returned them for 11.5, still a little large, but I'll keep them.

A fine product , but they ran too large. In my normal 13EE the shoe was too big. 12EE was the ticket.

This is my second pair of Rubber Mocs. They are comfortable and easy on and off. My only dislike about these shoes is their width. By the time I tighten the laces enough to keep them on my feet the tongue of the shoe wads up. It can be uncomfortable.

I have been looking for my "duck shoes" for years. They are exactly as what I remembered! Due to a foot injury years back, the right shoe rubbed painfully despite trying out different sizes and thick socks.

The quality workmanship is there. However the "chain tread" is MUCH too shallow. They wear out too quickly.

Sizing is weird. I almost always need 9. For this crazy shoe I'm wearing 7.5!!! A 7 might have worked better.

The reviewers in March 2024 all make good points. The boots are a little loose in the heel even when worn with thick socks. Just don't expect to climb a mountain in them. Stick to slogging around in the street, the yard, or a field. They are very comfortable, functional, practical for light duty walking/working. The updated footbed allows for more control to help compensate for the loose fit. But do heed the sizing recommendations. Order a full size down, and get yourself some soft, heavy socks. The materials and the construction? : Superb and classically keeping with the Bean legacy.

Be careful, this design is so old I think it's time for an update. Notice how high and narrow the heel is with no ankle support, this results in lots of "roll-overs" that can become a bit painful, they are also provide little to no arch support and become uncomfortable to walk in for any length of time. Getting the mail, firewood, shoveling a small amount is all they're good for. Don't expect to be able to take a walk in them.

Well the good is they seem well made so far and the tread is ok when it is new for the ice / mud. They do not leak. The things I wish were different are mostly that I am not sure how well the tread will wear, the heel is somewhat narrow so they roll a bit and the tongue is on the outside so the way the laces tie is weird / uncomfortable. They are kind of garish but they were on sale so, you know... I purchased a size 13 and was able to tie the leather laces to account for my narrow feet. I use it for daily chores with animals in the yard / field / barn in Virginia. They are lighter than my boots and not as slippery as Crocs. They seem to be well insulated from the cold ground. I have not walked out of them yet in the mud but I think that is coming as you can either tighten them so they stay on or let them be a bit looser to let you slip them on and I usually like to slip them on.

Would be great if came in narrow width like my pair from 1970s

Got these for Christmas- They are replacing a similar pair that are more than 30 years old which were go to for wet/muddy or light snow, first time i wore them needed to tighten the leather lace and it broke and needs to be replaced, have not delt with this yet as it happened today . Will mostlikly call them and ask for a new leather lace

My old size 11 is too tight, new Size 12 is too loose. Will stuff toes with newspaper. to make fit.

I already have the 6" Bean Boots, and the Bean Gumshoes. These Moc's have a very different fit. I got tired of the aggro with the sizing and returned them. I wish Bean would convert to standardized sizing. The guesswork regarding sizing becomes tiring!

The boots looked great and well constructed. The sizing was the problem. The notes said to purchase one size down from your normal size, which I did. They were still too long. I'm not sure if another half size down would have done it, because they no longer had the that size available. Listed the width was normal because width was a required field, but don't know for sure because the length did not fit

They are fine for what I use them for, brief trips to the yard to tend the bird feeders, and quality made. I don't like the way they lace up. Rather than the conventional way, the lace goes around the heel and really only has one strand going across the front concentrating pressure there uncomfortably. I normally where 9 1/2 but in these that was too large, the 7 1/2 fit.

Ridiculous sizing. There's a difference between a "unique fit" and the design of this shoe. The heels are far too wide. I usually wear a 8.5, and even in the smallest men's size available (a 7), it took wearing 2 pairs of thick wool socks to make it fit correctly. That's fine in the dead of winter, but I really would want this shoe to be versatile fall, winter, and spring. I understand needing to wear a thicker sock with them (say a lighter wool), but with just one sock on they were too loose - an obvious problem for a shoe that will naturally loosen up with time. An insole made my foot not fit into the shoe properly. After ordering 3 different sizes, I've given up for now. It seems to be a recurring issue to the point that I've read reviews of men go into women's sizing (same exact shoe, just different sizes). I will look into this but only after I've had the opportunity to visit a physical store and try on sizes personally rather than guessing. Great classic shoe and good quality, but really missed the mark in sizing.

I really wanted to love these shoes ... I normally wear a 12, and even following the suggestion to order a whole size down, I eventually returned a 10.5 because it just didn't fit tightly enough to prevent the heel from slipping when I walked.

This shoe was three sizes smaller than my regular shoe size and didn't fit.

The heel section is too wide for a normal sized foot. It should be tapered for a more snug fit. My heels pop out and make walking difficult with the weight of these shoes
