These shoes will be for ever etched into our heads because of The Jam & Going Underground. Countless people wanted so much to be part of The Jam gang and what better wear than wearing the exact same shoes as Bruce Foxton wore in the video.
Notice that on the soles we have added the Guitars from the video. Yes Paul & Bruce both used Rickenbackers. We thought it would be fun to put this on the sole.
Around our way these shoes were everywhere, especially at our school. Go into town and you would meet others that were stamping the allegiance to the Jam also wearing them.
Since the 80s various people have made them, but they could be hard to get hold off by a good make. So guess what we had them made. They come from the same factory as the shelbys, so you know they will be good

Just got the delivery and are so happy with the shoes. Fits like gloves on my feets.
Very good looking in black suede and white leather details and are a reminder of my old worn out pair of Badgers from Shelly´s back in the early eighties. Then all leather.
Quality and looks never goes out of style.
I will wear them with my old parka and cherish old times and memories as a The Jam fan from Stockholm

I ordered my usual size 7 . These are quite roomy but not too big. I’m very happy with how comfortable they are. Love these shoes

Got my new pair of black & white after a few days last week and I just can say they fit perfectly and are very comfortable to wear, better than the ones I had at high school in 1983. Many thanks and I will buy again for sure!

From memory these are exactly the same as the ones I bought from Shelleys Shoes back in the day. In fact because of the sole I would say better. There’s no way I’m wearing them until it stops raining though. As a further comment I seem to remember the Jam shoes being more pointed from Shelleys back in the 70’s than the ones on your website. Otherwise I’d buy a pair of these as well. I’d put most things on my feet but wearing Shelleys spats were a fashion faux pas even for me!

Love these shoes. Following the Jam was the highlight of my younger years and owning these shoes brings back all the memories. The fit is perfect and I walk with a swagger when I wear them. I’m forever looking at shop windows to catch my reflection. Love the detail on the sole.
The delivery from Mod Shoes was earlier than expected. Waiting till after Christmas to get the tricolour pair. I never expected to need more than one pair of suede shoes but the more the merrier.

An excellent quality pair of shoes. One of my favourite designs and the sole etching is incredible.

These are fantastic shoes. They look really stylish and have a wonderfully comfortable fit and feel. They are also extremely well made and sturdy; very much built to last. The service, as ever, from Mod Shoes was top notch.

Great price, great delivery. So comfortable that I’ve worn them everyday. Always commented on. They look great with a pair of black cords and a tipped polo. Hope they get my size in again as I would love to buy another pair.

Love them, also have the red, white and blue ones. I used to wear the badger ones to school back in the day. Lol.
The shoes are made like shoes should be.
The service also is fantastic. I live on Mallorca and they came right on time.
Highly recommended.

Jam Stage Shoes – Badgers – by MOD SHOES ”My Life Long Favourite Shoe”. Bought a Original pair after watching ”Going Underground” for the very 1st time (Wish I Still Had Them). Have bought other pairs from other companies, which had very poor attention to detail etc and were immediately returned. After finding MOD SHOES and many months of deliberation i finally ordered a Pair. ABSOLUTELY Spot-On, the attention to detail, quality upper and sole materials, pattern design, comfort and fit. Before ordering I was a bit sceptical over the sole design as would have much loved the Original sole design, although this is done with good taste and design. I have actually Framed this Pair, so I need to order another to wear on those Special occasions. KTF

Absolutely love these shoes! I always get loads of comments everytime I wear them. I wanted some for years but didn’t think I could ”pull it off” but so glad I went for it.
They very comfortable and excellent quality
