I just got my mules in the size 40 today. The fit is good in that my heel doesn't hang out but it seems a little big in the front. I like the way the 39.5 fit better in the front. It seemed a little more secure. Do you guys know if the mules stretch out with wear? I don't want them to be too loose..to the point where they are sliding off my feet.

I had mine for a good six weeks before wearing. I agonized over the size and ordered in another size - and started this thread because of it. I went with the one with more room in the front that fit the best in the heel and SO glad I did. They definitely fit more comfortably now, but have not stretched out of shape at all. No sliding either.

I also put a Foot Petal pad under the ball of each foot for a little bit extra cushion and always wear with a half-sock (don't laugh) and they still look brand new!

This "70's style" of Gucci loafer seems just longer in the front. I don't even notice it anymore. [emoji4]

If your heel isn't hanging past the edge in the 39.5 and the front fits better, then you should get that size. it's leather; expect it to soften and give with use.

If it gives too much at the front, just add a half insole

Guess it depends what is more important to you-I don't care for heel overhang, so I'd go a bit bigger and add a cushion.

I've had the Tian for a month and haven't worn them. I can't decide if I should keep them. I love the design but usually would never get something "logo."

Does anyone own both the Brixton and Princetown? I love both but am wondering how easy the Brixton is to wear with the back flipped up and down? They seem a tiny bit more practical than the Princetown since they have a back, although I feel like I would always wear them down if I started doing that.

I have both. I wear the Brixton both up and down; it's super easy to switch. And the shoe is no worse for wear being worn with the back down. But if you're always going to wear the Brixton with the back down, why not save the money and buy the cheaper Princetown?

I keep looking at pics comparing the two and I think that I prefer the Princetown just a bit more. Do you have a favourite?

So I just took ownership of the Princetown slippers with fur.

Love love love them. I found them to be true to size for me in a 38.5.

Curious though, has anyone had these out and got caught in rain? I will obviously try to avoid, just wondering what I can do to stop/avoid them getting manky!

I have the Brixton on pre order. Obsessed with the latest range of loafers.

I have the Amstel with fur

If they get wet from rain just let them dry naturally, if they get muddy, don't touch until dry and once bone dry brush. The mud with turn to dust and brush-out easily.

If the fur mats-up from the weight of fur just comb it out again
