This product replaced some similar LL Bean Mocs drivers that were released over 20 years ago and are no longer available in LL Bean. This circumstance even played into my hands, because these moccasins are of high quality and made of thicker, but quite supple leather. They're about $40 less than the closest LL Bean moc that doesn't have the bottom inserts that a moc driver would make. Comfortable, easy to put on and take off, legs do not overheat. Manufactured in the Dominican Republic.
