Based on the penny loafers that were popular with American students around the time of World War II, the addition of hardware on the vamp created a sense of luxury, evolving them into shoes for adults. These are the Horsebit Loafers. From the 1950s to the present day, their status has not diminished, and as they are called a timeless masterpiece, they have set themselves apart from other brands' fashion shoes. They are an all-around pair that blends seamlessly from casual to formal wear. Currently, although the specifications are different, a similar product is sold on the GUCCI official website as "Men's Lug Sole Loafer with Horsebit" for a retail price of 181,500 yen (tax included). 1953 Collection Jordaan, etc.
