FYI I see people ride bikes in flip-flops everyday (and drive cars) which are even more less stable but I think err on the safe side.

Which style did you choose?Hi guys! New to the Gucci forum here! I'm looking to invest in my first pair of Gucci loafers, something very classic, so of course I am considering both the Jordaan and Brixton styles.
However I am a little confused about the differences between the two! Is the only difference that the Brixton can be folded down? Are there any other differences in terms of look, quality, fit etc? Is there a style that are considered more classic? The Brixton style is quite a bit cheaper and I was just wondering if this were for any particular reason.
Also, how do people generally find them in terms of comfort and sizing? Do they fit true to size? Should I size up/down or stick with my usual? I'm a 39 in the Gucci Marmont Pumps.
Any info you may have will be greatly appreciated!
I have had a lot , still have and start to buy same models second time, i prefer Princetowns and Brixtons. ( or Peytons with 3 cm heel) .
Brixton is perfect. The colours which Gucci offers today is gorgeous. I remember December 2015-January 2016, there were few colours available. I bought hibiscus red, the soft leaher and the folded heel , damn, it was so comfortable and yes, you can run in airports.
All Gucci shoes are comfortable. And in all of them you can run. ( for me with fur is difficult, i loose then when i try to run
)
Hi everyone.
I also have a question about sizing.
My normal size is a IT41.
I have three pairs of Gucci Marmonts(two in midheel suede, and one in the gold leather) , all in size IT40
So I have to size down a whole size for the Marmonts
Do you think I should size a whole size down for the Jordaan leather loafers as well? And the Princetown, should I do a 40,5 maybe if they are smaller in size?
I have normal to narrow feet.
Thank you so much guys, any help would be most appreciated

I finally got the Princetowns. To be honest, I could not readily find the Brixton in my size. But now with the heat I am so happy to have the mules. I have tried the Brixtons and to me they are sort of more of an occasional mule, not so easy to wear that way. The one situation where I think they are ideal is for travelling. Oh well... Would three pairs of black Gucci same-look loafers be justified...?
For me, if I lived in certain style of shoe it would be totally justifiable. I don't have any plain black, but I have 2 pairs of loafers in navy and one in purple so this is the way my brain works.

I see you've already posted in this thread:
https://forum.purseblog.com/threads...does-anyone-have.935337/page-58#post-31429274
Plenty of info on Princetown sizing already if you read through the thread.
Other loafers IME (med width, high instep):
1953-style = go down 0.5
Brixtons = go down 0.5
Jordaans = TTS, take your normal size.
Hi there. Thank you for your reply. I got the Jordaans today. I sized down half a size, but they are way to big for me. I have narrow feet, so I need to size down a whole size in Jordaans as well as the Marmonts. In the Gucci sneakers I need 1,5 - 2 whole sizes down from my TTS
I tried on the Brixton and Jordaans, both required sizing 1/2 down. Jordaans felt a little snug in the width but I have average width feet. I think the stiff leather looks nicer but I ended up buying the Brixton instead because it was just more comfortable overall.
I own a pair of brixtons and I got my true to size. I currently have a pair of jordaans on the way to me and I sized down half a size for those. I did need to use a shoe horn to get the shoes on though. Brixtons felt like slippers the first time I wore them so comfort wise, brixtons come out first. I will say though I decided to get a pair of jordaans because I think I will like how they age better as they retain their shape more with the structure of the shoe.
