After tearing up the Trad-o-sphere a few months ago with the announcement that they'd be updating the long-loved Bass Weejun, the company's finally released its new school "Dover" model. Like updating a classic car model for today, they smoothed out some lines, making a few nips here and tucks there. But unlike a car, the price has remained rather modest. Personally, my ambivalence to the Weejun's been well-documented. I've always felt the shoe was a little stuffy—for those guys that were square of jaw and blue in blood. But I like the leanness of the Dover, with its elongated toe box and slimmer heel. And hell, anything good enough for James Dean is good enough for me.

Answer

With nearly every airline imposing a baggage fee nowadays, if you can get away with flying with just a carry-on, do it.
