Golden Goose Superstar Sneakers Every Collector Should Have
I’ve been hooked on Golden Goose Deluxe Brand for a while. They were launched back in 2000 after bringing together the talents of Francesca Rinaldo and Alessandro Gallo in Italy. As time went on, they have evolved into a huge designer brand with flagship stores in multiple countries, and it’s one that style enthusiasts really love.
I’ve followed Golden Goose for ages and I would often check out the collection on FarFetch, as they always had an amazing selection, but I never ended up getting any because I always thought they were quite expensive and seemed too close in style to Converse, 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 crafted by hand in Italy, I was totally into it. As the Golden Goose Superstar sneakers are intentionally aged and made to appear vintage, they are all hand done so each one is different. Some have heavier wear than others, so the variation is wide.
If you’re buying at a store, it might be a good idea to look at multiple pairs and select from them, but if you’re ordering online, you have to hope you get a good pair!The pair of sneakers that I originally fell in love with first are the ones above in the main image, as they’ve been in rotation a long time, but I never ended up purchasing them.
The pair of sneakers that I first became obsessed with right away are the ones above in the main image, as they’ve been around for a long time, but I always held off on getting them. I actually ended up getting the shiny edition from Shopbop and they’re a pair I have styled occasionally through the seasons (see here offsite link for Golden Goose and my review of Golden Goose here). They’re one of my favorites! I grabbed a duplicate pair and jazzed them up using black laces and a burgundy star, which made them extra adorable! In my collection, I’ve also got a velvet burgundy Golden Goose and two different high top versions! 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 double up, even though they’re different.
Anyway, here is my 10 must have Golden Goose Superstar Sneakers round-up. I’m excited to finally get hype kicks that you can rock in any condition since you aren’t worried about messing them up — they’re already distressed. It’s kind of an unexpected concept, and I can see these now turning into a collectible. They are so viral with the fashion elite!
