Brixton Collapsible Leather Loafers

Ok, we won’t pretend you haven’t already heard of Gucci’s Brixton loafers – they’re a contemporary icon, after all – and instead we’ll run over the signature of this sleek pair. They’re crafted from the same smooth leather as its predecessors, to an almond-toe shape that’s finished with the intantly-recognisable gold-toned horsebit and Web-striped panel. The heel folds down when warm weather dictates your pair them with cropped trousers.
