The Golden Goose Superstar Sneakers You Need to Know About
Golden Goose Deluxe Brand is something I’ve always admired. They were founded in 2000 after the collaboration between Francesca Rinaldo and Alessandro Gallo in Italy. Through the years, they have evolved into a huge designer brand with retail locations in multiple countries, and it’s one that style enthusiasts really love.
I’ve known about Golden Goose for years and I would often look through what FarFetch had, as they always had an fantastic selection, but I never ended up getting any because I always thought they were quite expensive and resembled Converse too much, so they were always saved for later. Some time back, Adam was the one who was the early fan and he actually got his first pair of their Superstar sneakers last year, which was what inspired me to look into them more. Having seen his in person and seeing how each pair of their shoes is completely unique because they’re artisanal, I was totally into it. As the Golden Goose Superstar sneakers are intentionally aged and made to seem broken-in, they are all hand done so they’re truly one-of-a-kind. Some have heavier wear than others, so the variation is wide.
If you’re choosing in person, it might be a good idea to look at multiple pairs and pick from them, but if you’re ordering online, you have to hope you get a good pair!The pair of sneakers that I was first obsessed with are the ones above in the main image, as they’ve been on the market forever, but I never ended up purchasing them.
I actually ended up getting the metallic version off Shopbop, and they’re a pair I have used occasionally (see here and my Golden Goose review here). I genuinely adore them! I bought another pair the same and customized them with dark laces + a burgundy detail, so they’re really fresh! I also own a pair of cheap golden goose velvet burgundy Golden Goose, and two pairs of high tops! I do definitely want a black pair now, but I have a pair of Converse in black canvas, so I’m not sure I should repeat the color, even though they’re different.
Anyway, here is my curated list of 10 Superstar sneaker picks. I’m excited to finally have luxury sneakers that you can use without stress since you aren’t worried about messing them up — they’re already worn-in. It’s kind of an ingenious idea, and I can see these now turning into a collectible. They are so popular among celebrities and fashion bloggers!
