Key Departments

Shoes

Gucci's shoe department is unparalleled. Bejeweled heels and sharp leather loafers share shelves with sleek sport sneakers and even G-stamped flip flops.

Formalwear

Gucci offers manifold options for polished, streamlined suits (from $1,800) and stylish tuxedos ($2,610). The Signoria has a notch lapel with a satin trim. The company also does made-to-order apparel.

Cuff Links

The luxury megabrand’s contributions to men’s wrists range from a simple silver set to a pair studded with onyx. There’s a smattering of stylistic accents—sixties mod, say, or modern artisan—but they all share a signature look: sleek, clean, and masculine.
