I've tried on both the Brixton and Jordaan. I'm a 6.5 US and the 36.5 in jordaan was too big. I could fit a whole finger in the back of the shoe. I purchased brixton in a 36 and it's fits fine. My foot is on the narrow side, if that helps

Oh wow. Now I am confused.
Becuase the 35 is just right on me for Brixton and the leather on Brixton is softer than Jordan right? My feet is not narrow. Getting in the Brixton, I need to wiggle my foot and good for the soft leather then I can slip my foot in but knowing the leather on Jordan will be more stiff then I thought it would be better to get a half size bigger so easier to get my foot in. The 35 Brix is an exact fit even on top of my foot so I figured a half size bigger for Jordan will make sure I don't rub my toes at the front of shoe.
I am a true US5.5 but for open shoes like sandals or mules a US5.

The Brixton leather is definitely softer but the Jordaan even with the more structured leather still had a lot of space for me in the 36.5. Here are a few reviews on saks that speak to the jordaan sizing. http://m.saks.com/pd.jsp?productCod...Gucci&Ntt=jordaan&N=0&bmUID=lJ_kvvD#tab-group
3 said go down a size and one says too small and too narrow so maybe I'll just stick to a half size big then I'll just put a leather insert on the insole? Or should I just stick to 35?

thanks, y'all! appreciate your help! that's what I was beginning to lean towards...the roses are just so special and if you're going to go Gucci, you should go all out
...I think i'm going to go for those.
So I just received my Red Jordaans and I ordered a half size bigger than my Brixton and I m glad I did. The leather is more stiff and quite narrow in the front so it was a challenge to slip my foot inside. But when inside it fits like a glove with ample toe space and about a half cm space at the back but My feet won't slide out becuase the narrow Front is holding it in place.
I noticed that when my feet become tired then my feet swells up about so the Brixton is quite snug so thank the heavens that the leather on the Brixton is very soft so not rubbing against any part of my foot.
Now I feel relieved I got my Jordaans with stiff leather a half size bigger so that when my
Feet swells then the leather won't rub against or feel claustrophobic for my feet.
I wear 35 in Princetown and Brixton and 35.5 in Jordaan. I think I can wear Jordaan in 35 but really would be difficult for me to get my foot in and my
feet are neither narrow or wide.

Hi there! I am new around here, but I just wanted to give some advice to anyone looking to purchase the Princetown mules, Brixton loafers, or Jordaan loafers!
It has been a headache trying to figure out my sizing (reading through countless reviews, watching YouTube reviews, checking through this forum, etc) and I hope I can help anyone with my personal experience just so you don't have to go through what I did. I went through a lot of exchanging, returning, waiting for stock, being patient etc etc before I found the perfect sizes bc I am quite picky!
So I usually always take a 7.5 US and usually a 38 in European sizes. To reference popular shoes I am a 38N in Birkenstock Arizonas, a 7.5 in classic Converse, 38 in Stan Smith's, and a 38 in the Acne Studios Jensen boots. I would say I have a narrow-ish to regular width foot.
However, in both the Brixton and Jordaan styles, much to my surprise I found size 37 was the size that fit best. I tried on the 38 and they were massive. Then the 37.5, which fit well, but I feared with the leather stretching they would become too loose, I think. Lastly, I tried size 37 and they fit like a glove! They did not feel tight at all and I experienced no blisters or rubbing even in the beginning with the first couple of wears. I know a lot of you have said the Jordaans run narrower, but in my opinion I do not feel much of a difference between the Brixton. The leather is softer on the Brixton, but I feel the fit is quite similar if not identical for me. All in all, I would say get these half a size smaller than your US size.
Something else I wanted to mention. The Brixton's are VERY delicate, so delicate that the leatner inside the sole of my shoe started to peel off on the edges.... like the adhesive was wearing off after only having the shoes for a month. I am pretty sure the pair I had were defective, as I complained and returned them right away. I was SO sad that this happened. Fortunately, I don't think I've encountered anyone else saying they had this same issue, so it could've just been me.
After this happened, I decided to go for the Jordaan's as they seem sturdier and will hold up better. So if anyone is debating between the two loafer styles, I say go for the Jordaan even though they're more expensive I think it is worth it, unless you absolutely need a softer leather bc your feet are sensitive.
In the Princetown mules (w/o fur), again much to my surprise I take a size 38. I had originally purchased a 37 thinking they would fit like the loafers, but no. My foot hung off quite a bit! I then ordered a 37.5... still too small. I've read that a lot of people complain about how narrow this shoe is and how it's hard to get their foot all the way in. For me the width was fine, but even with pushing my toes all the way to the front in the 37.5 my heel still wasn't flush with the shoe. Thus, I went for the 38. Perfect fit no complaints! These were true to my European size.
I really hope this helps someone out there and saves someone the headache of trying to figure out your size!

Just wanted to chime in re sizing - so glad I went to the boutique to try them on! I'm a true IT 37 and for the Princetowns with no fur, 37 fit perfectly (ie no overhang but no additional space behind my heel). Very comfy width wise and not much slippage. I ended up buying the Princetowns with fur and took a 37.5 which is what the SAs recommend (the fur makes it thicker therefore you need more space??) - perfect fit as above!
