My name is Isabella Littleford, and I bring over a decade of behind-the-scenes know-how in the world of fashion, always with a focus on how luxury can live in daily wardrobes.
Having spent more than ten years in fashion, I’ve had the privilege of honing my craft in Paris, the capital of couture and collaborating with some of the most visionary designers in the world. Those years gave me a clear lens for spotting exceptional quality, innovative design, and timeless appeal. There’s something endlessly fascinating about Golden Goose sneakers, a brand that perfectly combines a pre-worn character with impeccable high-end craftsmanship. In this article, I’ll be sharing my personal take on various Superstar variants, diving into their style, comfort, and versatility.
Whether you’re a die-hard sneaker collector or simply looking to inject a bit of chic into your wardrobe, I’m here to guide you through it all with advice shaped by my industry experience. Come with me as we unpack what sets these sneakers apart!
A few months back, I bought my first Golden Goose sneakers (and shared them first in this post!), and received a number of questions about them since then. So many that I thought it was time for a full review! I’ve also broken them in well that I understand how they really perform, and a variety of other factors about them, which you’ll see broken down further.
So I’m diving into a bunch of popular FAQs, as well as where you can find them on sale, in the sections below! Also, if you’re looking for more of my recent reviews, check out my comparison of Abercrombie and Agolde jean shorts, Goyard St. mens golden goose sneakers Louis GM Tote review, and thoughts on the Dudley Stephens fleece pullover!
Where did you get them?
I grabbed mine from Cettire when they had a limited-time deal going on.
I ordered them on the 28th of April and they were shipped to me by April 30th, so the shipping was super fast .
How expensive are they?
Back in April, I found a deal for $385.43 instead of paying the full $513.91.
These sneakers typically range from $400–$1,700, depending on how customized they are.
Are they true to size?
I’d say they fit just right, based on my pair.
Since they keep their shape and half sizes aren’t available, I’d recommend sizing up.
Are they comfortable?
They only needed minimal break-in time..
How durable are they?
Since they come pre-distressed, I didn’t worry about scuffing them more. I’ve worn them all over NYC, and I’m impressed with the durability. Nothing has torn, and the structure feels strong. Since the aesthetic is distressed, I don’t really notice if there’s new wear and tear.
How do they compare to other sneakers?
They’re the highest quality sneakers I have. I’ve tried others like Vejas, but Golden Goose wins in both comfort and quality. They have a hidden arch lift that adds support and height — making your legs look longer. Also, they’re crafted individually, so each pair is custom-feeling. And the glitter on mine? Next-level.
Would you recommend them?
Absolutely! Though I suggest looking for a deal. They’re not cheap, so getting them with a promo is smarter. They’re worth the investment, especially if you find a style that suits you. I chose a loud pair, but a minimalist version would also go with everything.
Where can I find them on sale?

How much do they run?
Back in April, I managed to get them for $385.43 instead of paying the full $513.91.
These sneakers typically cost anywhere between $400–$1,700, depending on how customized they are.
Are they true to size?
They’re true to size in my experience, at least for me. Since they keep their shape and half sizes aren’t available, I’d recommend sizing up.
Are they comfortable?
They required minimal break-in time.
Do they hold up well?
Because they already have scuffs, I didn’t worry about wearing them outside. I’ve worn them all over the city, and they’ve held up beautifully. Nothing has torn, and the structure feels strong.
Since the aesthetic is distressed, I can’t even tell if there’s new wear and tear.
