Luxury fashion brand [Gucci](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gucci-slipon-sneaker) created a new pair of branded velvet loafers named the 'Jordaan logo embroidered loafers.' These new shoes are available in a light blue leopard print or a light pink leopard print, both featuring the brand's logo embroidered all over. The rest of the brand's summer release resembles a more classical style, with these shoes fitting right in.

With a flat sole, almond toe and detailed seaming, these shoes pull inspiration from the [traditional loafer design](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/loafer-wk). Retailing at $730 online,
these shoes were made exclusively with high-quality materials, such as 100% true leather and 100% true velvet. The new branded velvet loafers by Gucci are a fashion-forward take on a classic shoe, with luxurious gold details making them an instant classic.
