Historical item of origin

These days, shoes and loafers are popular not only for men but also for women.

It is now one of the standard items in fashion,

It is no exaggeration to say that there is no one who does not have it.

Such loafers also come in various shapes,

Coin loafers (penny loafers), tassel loafers, plain loafers...

This time we will talk about bit loafers, which are a little avoided.

Loafers with metal fittings are called bit loafers.

Its origin begins with Gucci's idea in 1953.

The loafers themselves are said to have originated from aristocratic room shoes.

It is said that loafers began to be used as shoes around the turn of the 1900s, so

The bit loafer itself is an item with a relatively short history of about 70 years.

Nowadays, even young women are seen wearing bit loafers.

A few years ago, this metal fittings were not very popular, perhaps because they looked a little flashy.

However, depending on the generation, it is one of the shoes that can be considered a must-have item.

It can be said that the way of understanding it varies depending on the era.

Personally, I have an image of ``shoes that grandpa wears.''

Of course it's not from a famous brand like Gucci,

It's like I don't know where I bought it (lol)

The design of Bit Loafer is truly a "royal classic",

Maybe that's why it feels a little old-fashioned.

In addition to the price, when it comes to BIT loafers, it's Gucci.

Speaking of Gucci, Bit Loafer is such a major and coveted item.

If I can wear these shoes, I'll feel like I've stepped up the stairs to adulthood.

My boss at my old workplace was a woman,

A stylish and cool person is always wearing Gucci horse bits,

People who wear these shoes so well that they say, ``I love them so much, this is my third pair.''

I remember feeling so cool.

It definitely had a big impact on me,

That's when it became one of the shoes I wanted someday.

Time has passed and I got it after struggling for almost 10 years.

Is it a coincidence or necessity that there was talk of an event in Hiroshima that will be held next week?

I think these shoes will look great at events,

I would like to go with this next week.

The leather sole is slippery, so I made it half tensioned.

The playful embossed icon of current designer Alessandro Michele is also great!

It was worth waiting for almost a month.

I guess all I have to do is ask them to shine my shoes at next week's event.
