G.H. Bass & Co x Universal Works
Iconic US footwear brand G.H. Bass & Co. have partnered with contemporary British menswear label, Universal Works, to create two debut styles, echoing the core design values of both brands.
In keeping with the G.H. Bass & Co philosophy for honest, premium and uncomplicated footwear, the collab sees the introduction of two new styles - the Wedge Larson and the Wedge Tie. A twist on the modern loafer, the Wedge Larson mixes the classic Penny Weejun shape with a wedge sole, whilst the Wedge Tow is a slightly more laidback design, with a hand stitched moccasin inspired construction and tasseled laces.
For the first time, both styles incorporate a hardwearing Vibram outsole and Reverso suede has been paired with leather welt to create upper hand-stitched moccasin construction. Drawing on inspiration from the Universal Works spring collection, the shoes feature acid yellow stitching integrated throughout.
From £175 for the Weejun Wedge Larson and £185 for the Weejun Wedge Tie.
