Hands down the most comfy shoes I own…even compared to sneakers ! I have both the Gucci Brixton and Jordaan loafers, glancing at them, they look the same, main difference is the Brixton folds down in the back to double as a slip on. Either pair, you can’t go wrong, classic & comfy is a win win… and with endless options in styles, colors, patterns, fabrics or leathers, Gucci has you covered!

I’ve literally been wanting these forever, but in red. Glad to hear you find them comfy, because I have been wondering for a while now…

sorry for the delayed reply…I’ve had them for several months now and they continue to be the most comfy shoes ever ! ; )
Did you size down in the brixtons and by how much?
i went 1/2 size down but i think it will vary from person to person, would be best if you have a chance to try on in store or or 2 sizes and return one – hope this helps !
You look great in these! How do you like these compared to the Jordaans or the mules? Is the sizing the same for you in the brixtons? Do you find the fold down back useful at all? I have the mules in black and getting the Brixtons in red and wanted your opinion on how the 2 compare in terms of looks and sleekness – is the Brixton more chunky/casual than the Jordaan? thanks!!
Hi there! So first thing first – across the board I wear the same size in all my Guccis – Jordaans / Brixton / Fur slides and regular mules. I wear my Black Brixton 10x more than any other pair so prob consider those my most comfortable out of the bunch. Mules in general are trickier to walk in esp. on New York streets, up and down subways, rushing around city but they are great for slow laid back days when none of those factors are a concern! between the jordaan + brixton, I never wear brixton with back down so i wear them in same manner, but because I wear the brixton so much more it has soften up the most and is perhaps least sleek now…having said that they all feel and look same in terms of sleekness. Really they are both amazingly comfortable and you just can’t go wrong – love them all – hope this helps !

Hey there! which one would you recommend for regular use, the Jordaan or Brixton? because I went to the store and saw both of them and noticed that the Jordaan was quite stiff compared to the Brix….
thanks so much!!
This post has been extremely useful. It’s so nice to have a general comparison! You have a fiiiiiine collection of Gucci footwear. I’m really glad I went to a store to get the right size down. I finally bought a pair of the Brixton in black and got to try on the Jordaans too. I had to size 1/2 down as well. Thanks so much!
I am between an 8.5 and 9 and I bought these in the 38.5
I am narrow but these are kind of tight but not uncomfortable. I’m right up on the front of the shoe with my big toe. I hope these will stretch a bit. I hate to spend that much money and have them be too small.
wondering what your thoughts were? Love your posts and your website. I’m obsessed with your look!
Hi there! let me start off by saying I probably wear my Brixtons every day or every other day…they are well worn and used and definitely have stretched out – not sure how long it took them to soften. They are soft to begin with and not stiff so felt they were comfortable from the get-go.I didn’t experience the snug fit you mentioned being right at the edge, I took a half size down and am the same in all my Guccis. If they are not uncomfortable as you say, I would prob stick with them knowing they will relax and soften even more. They are quite an investment but are well worth it – they are my most comfortable flats and i rely on them constantly. I predict you’ll be investing in a new pair eventually b/c of the comfort factor alone (quality over quantity in this case ; ) Hope this has been helpful and all the best with them – hope you love them!
I am so glad you posted this! I have the Jordaan loafer in black velvet and love love love them! I really want to get the Jordaan loafer in black leather to wear as a spring/summer shoe because the velvet pair are very seasonal. After having both pairs for awhile, do you think the silhouette of the shoes are the same or is the Brixton cut a bit different because of the seam/fold down in the back? I love the cut of the Jordaan and think they are very sleek, but I don’t get exactly the same vibe with the Brixton every though they are so similar! Also, I know they make the Jordaan in black leather, but I have a $200 credit at a store and want to use that toward the purchase and that store only has the Jordaan in blue leather. Any help you can provide would be awesome!
