Founded in 1946, the Sebago® Company was started by three New England natives and friends: Daniel J. Wellehan Sr., William Beaudoin and Joseph Cordeau. The first shoe they released was a hand- sewn penny loafer. Sebago®’s penny loafer was inspired by the popular Indian moccasin and featured the company’s patented welt construction. Handsewn with the finest craftsmanship since 1946, the classic loafer is the most classic and iconic Sebago® footwear. Citysides® enshrine New England’s heritage by letting authenticity shine through their upper leather and superior construction. Curiousity and explorative spirit perfect the Citysides®, providing them with comfortable fitting and premium details. Meet Citysides®. Experience the roots of Sebago®.
