Respectfully, I disagree with the Gucci loafers at $900. You can get MUCH better loafers at that price point than a Gucci loafer.

when gucci did like 25 different versions of the horsebit loafer in 2013 (the loafer's 60th birthday), i bought a few pairs at around $530 apiece, which felt like fair value for an extremely iconic designer shoe. honestly I think they only charge so much more now bc they can, since the brand became so hot under alessandro michele. while i completely agree that they're overpriced now, personally i wouldn't want any other horsebit loafer (with all due respect to ferragamo, carmina, et al). i've since bought several more pairs secondhand in very nice shape for $250 or less and i highly recommend going that route

Blackstock and Weber is great! I have two. I think the horsebit in black leather with the Vibram sole is a better alternative to th Gucci black horesbit

It’s the solovair for me, I have the dealer Chelsea boots and they’re also amazing

weejuns all the way! the black model and the burgundy model are my favorite. works dressed up or casually. Also Gucci did invent the horsebit loafer.

Please make more videos like this.

Loafers sure are comfortable. You can wear whatever you want with them.

I do recommend Velasca Milano. Probably one of the best brands for shoes that won’t break the bank.

Loafer 180 By JM Weston Made In France Created In 1946 Is The Best And The Brand Exist Since 1891.

They look comfy.

Can attest to the Sebago joints being on sale. I got my pair for $80 New Zealand Dollars which is hella cheap. Maybe around $50USD.

i really love the silhouette of G.H bass co loafers but the only issue i have with them, is that when the outsoles becoming beat up. you can’t wear them when it raining. the waters would really go inside of your feet. worst part is that their insoles leaves a stains to you feet especially if you’re wearing socks.

@Gerald: Did you do anything to make the Blackstock & Weber more comfortable? I have a pair that I found super uncomfortable because there is no full insole - if I insert an insole, they're too small.

My pair of B&Ws were fortunately very comfy straight from the jump (helps that I accidentally ordered a half size too large lol). But! When shoes are a bit too tight, check out this article I wrote on breaking in leather shoes. Hopefully that helps you to stretch out the shoe a little bit to accommodate insoles! www.gq.com/story/how-to-break-in-leather-shoes - Gerald

I swore Gucci invented the horsebit loafer. Gucci originally made horse saddles, so the shoe paid homage to the designer’s early days.

Loafers in black does not go well with smart casual or casual clothes pairing. In fact true fashionistas don’t like them in black as they cannot either go casual or formal. These guys are clueless.
