The "horsebit loafer," a Gucci product whose name is written in bold letters in the shoe history, was created in 1953 and has graced the feet of Hollywood stars such as Fred Astaire since its birth, and Ivy Leaguers have been known to slip into them when they enter the workforce. Ivy Leaguers were the first to slip into the Gucci line when they entered society.
This season, instead of the well-known horsebit, Gucci has replaced it with the "web stripe" and the "interlocking G," which is based on the motif of a "G." The "interlocking G" is a well-known icon of Gucci, and is the twin of the horsebit. It is a well-known icon of Gucci, twinned with the horsebit.
Vertical sidewalls, beef-rolled saddles on the sides, and triangle mocs... A pair reminiscent of the penny loafers that have stomped around campuses the world over, and a European-scented pair with tassels on the gentle instep peak. Both are cleverly accented with an "interlocking G," making it hard to choose one over the other.
The "interlocking G" on the "web stripe" is an eye-catching feature of this pair. A classic and elegant pair. ¥102,000+TAX
