I had 4 pairs of lace-up Bass 100s in those years and practically lived in them, and wore them to death. They were so comfortable! They were kind of clunky with the thick rubber soles, but I loved them. These shoes came in tan color, ruddy, and dark drown, in lace-up and loafer styles. There was a white lace-up one too that was popular with nurses, etc. I recall paying about $42 a pair for mine, not cheap at the time. Bass 100s were so popular that at my restaurant job in college, probably 10 of us 12 or so girls wore them. We mostly wore them with white socks and jeans all the time. That was the hot fashion. I wore mine a lot with nylons and barefoot, too, with my jeans. I remember Bass 100s fondly because I had this boyfriend in college who thought my Bass 100s were really cute on me. I loved footrubs after long days at school and work, and he would slip off my Bass shoes and give me footrubs. This might sound sort of kinky, but he really liked the smell inside my Bass 100s off my feet, the sweet old leather and all, and he thought my feet smelled sexy out of my Bass 100s too, and he liked smelling them. Those were mutually enjoyable footrubs and good times. I still have my old Bass 100s, too.
