Golden Goose Superstar Sneakers to Step Up Your Game
One of my obsessions is Golden Goose Deluxe Brand. They were founded in 2000 after merging the creative spirit of Francesca Rinaldo and Alessandro Gallo in Italy. As time went on, they have grown into a huge designer brand with retail locations in multiple countries, and it’s one that style enthusiasts really love.
I’ve followed Golden Goose for ages 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 felt the price was too high and looked too similar to Converse, so they were always shoes that were just in the back of my mind. A couple of years ago, 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 pushed me to explore them deeper. Seeing his pair up close and seeing how each pair of their shoes is completely unique because they’re handmade in Italy, I was even more curious. As the Golden Goose Superstar sneakers are pre-distressed and made to look used and abused, they are all hand done so they’re truly one-of-a-kind. Some have much more abrasions and dirt than others, so each pair is unpredictable.
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 roll the dice!The pair of sneakers that I originally fell in love with first are the ones above in the main image, as they’ve been available for years, but I never ended up purchasing them.
I actually ended up getting the Shopbop-exclusive silver pair, and they’re a pair I have styled multiple times (see here and my Golden Goose review here). I genuinely adore them! I bought another pair in the same model and customized them with black laces and a burgundy star, so they’re really fun! I also own a pair of wine-toned velvet finish, and two pairs of taller silhouettes! I do definitely want a solid black set, but I have a the golden goose 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 get hype kicks that you can rock in any condition since you aren’t worried about getting them dirty — they’re already distressed. It’s kind of an clever design move, and I can see these now turning into a collectible. They are so viral with the fashion elite!
