Today, Gucci loafers have proven their timelessness, surviving not only years, but also moments in and out of the fashion ‘spotlight’. The classic, comfortable accessory is nothing if not a smart investment that can elevate any wardrobe—whether you’re a minimalist or maximalist. The most iconic styles have to be the original 1953 horsebit, which has barely changed since its inaugural design, and the more modern reimagining (but no less classic) Jordaan that has an altogether more streamlined look. I picked a black pair of these for my first designer investment purchase over five years ago and I still wear them on repeat to this day.
These days there are so many iterations of Gucci loafers to suit your own personal style—from velvet and raffia textures to bright colours, oversized logo prints and backless silhouettes. The brand reinvents its hero piece every season, adding new print options or a chunkier sole, keeping the loafers relevant and always effortlessly cool. It just goes to show that some things will never go out of style.
