Hello, I’m Isabella Littleford, a longtime style professional with a deep-rooted passion for celebrating where elegance meets function.
With over a decade immersed in the fashion industry, I’ve had the honor of refining my expertise in Paris, fashion’s epicenter and working alongside top-tier global designers. That experience taught me to recognize exceptional quality, innovative design, and timeless appeal. Golden Goose sneakers have long caught my attention, a brand that seamlessly blends a pre-worn character with luxury-level build quality. Here, I’ll walk you through my thoughts on different Superstar models, diving into their style, comfort, and versatility.
If you’re someone who lives for limited-edition sneakers or just wants a polished casual shoe, I’m here to guide you through it all with insights drawn from my years in the fashion trenches. Let’s explore what makes these sneakers a standout choice!
I purchased my first pair of Golden Goose sneakers a few months ago (and shared them first in this post!), and got tons of questions from you guys ever since. So many that I thought it was time for a full review! I’ve also had them long enough that I can confidently speak to their craftsmanship, and a variety of other factors about them, which you’ll see broken down further.
So I’m breaking down a bunch of frequently asked questions, golden goose pink shoes as well as where to score deals on them, in the sections below! Also, if you’re looking for more of my recent reviews, have a scroll through my Abercrombie vs. Agolde jean shorts review, Goyard St. Louis GM Tote review, and thoughts on the Dudley Stephens fleece pullover!
Where did you score your pair?
I ordered mine from Cettire when they had a solid deal going on.
Placed my order on the 28th of April and they were at my door by the 30th, so the shipping was really quick .
How expensive are they?
When I grabbed my pair in April, I paid around $385, but their standard price is around $514.
Golden Goose sneakers typically range from $400 to nearly $1,700, depending on how decked out they are.
How does the sizing run?
They’re true to size in my experience, at least for me.
Since they don’t stretch and they don’t come in half sizes, I’d recommend sizing up.
How comfy are they?
They felt good right away. I recommend wearing no-shows, especially since they reduce sweat. Top-quality leather, so it’s much more easy than breaking in synthetic materials. Bonus, they’re already broken-in so your feet just slide in.
Do they hold up well?
They look worn from the start, I didn’t worry about wearing them outside. I’ve worn them all over the city, and I’m impressed with the durability. The laces are intact, and the structure feels strong. Because they already look worn, I don’t really notice if there’s new wear and tear.
Do they feel better than other shoes?
Nothing else compares in comfort or quality. I’ve tried others like Vejas, but Golden Goose still come out on top. They have a hidden arch lift that adds just over an inch — making your legs look longer. Also, they’re not mass-produced, so each pair is one of a kind. And the glitter on mine? Next-level.
Are they worth it?
Yes! Though I suggest looking for a deal. They cost a lot, so getting them with a promo is worth it. They’re worth the investment, especially if you pick something you’ll wear a lot. I went bold with sparkle, but a minimalist version would also go with everything.

Where did you score your pair?
Cettire had them on sale and I took advantage right away!
I ordered them on the 28th of April and they were delivered by April 30th, so the shipping was super fast .
How much do they cost?
Back in April, I found a deal for $385.43 instead of paying the full $513.91.
You can expect to pay between $410 and seventeen hundred depending on their design features.
How is the fit?
I’d say they fit just right, based on my pair. Since they keep their shape and they don’t come in half sizes, I’d recommend sizing up.
Are they comfortable?
They felt good right away. I wear no-show socks with them, especially since they help with airflow. They’re made with real Italian leather, so it’s much more easy than breaking in plastic-based shoes. Plus, they’re already distressed so your feet just slide in.
How do they perform over time?
They look worn from the start, I didn’t worry about wearing them outside. I’ve worn them all over NYC, and they still look great. The laces are intact, and the shape stayed solid.
Thanks to the vintage look, I don’t really notice if there’s new wear and tear.
