SGGuestPost: Mocs In The Mud

For quite some time L.A.S over at Sartorially Inclined has been prepping for the launch of "the Bean Boot Project" which went live last week with a stream of great images and stories about the beloved boot.

You can check out my guest post which went live yesterday, below and HERE. The rest of the Bean Boot Project can be found HERE.


After years having duck boots of all brands except by the venerable Maine outfitter, I finally decided to start my collection of the real deal with the Bean Moc. Living in the South we don't get that much snow, yet tons of rain year round and figured I would wear them with shorts during summer thunderstorms, tromping around the country in the fall, through inch high snow in the winter and muddy puddles during spring showers.

Shortly after the Mocs arrived from Bean in the spring of 2005, horrible rain showers fell on Charlottesville, VA making Foxfield Races a muddy mess. Together with my friend Pamela, this picture was snapped to capture the moment. I remember it as the first of many fond memories I've shared not only with good friends, but my L.L.Bean Bean Boot Mocs.
