The Gucci horsebit loafer is celebrating its 60th anniversary and in Honor of the classic shoe, an exhibit opened at the Gucci Museo in Florence. The horsebit loafer was introduced in 1953 when Guccio Gucci's son, Aldo, expanded the family business with the launch of footwear.
"The horsebit loafer has lived many lives since its creation 60 years ago, earning itself an important place as a wardrobe staple for both men and women alike. The double-ring and bar motif taken from equestrian hardware remains an icon linking Gucci's unique history with its modern-day attitude," said creative director Frida Giannini.
