Golden Goose Sizing Guide
Golden Goose runs slightly large for most people. Here's what we recommend:
- If you're between sizes, go down
- They're meant to fit comfortably — not snug
- The leather will soften and mold to your foot over time
- EU sizing is standard (US 7 = EU 37, US 8 = EU 38, etc.)
When in doubt, come try them on! Our team can help you find the right fit.
How to Style Golden Goose
The beauty of Golden Goose sneakers is their versatility. Here's how to wear them:
Casual Everyday
The classic combo: great jeans + a tee + your GGs. Add a blazer to elevate, or keep it simple with a good bag and sunglasses.
Dressed Up
Yes, you can wear them with dresses! A midi dress or flowy maxi with Golden Goose sneakers is the perfect Austin look — put together without being stuffy.
Travel
Golden Goose are the ultimate travel shoe. They're comfortable for walking, stylish enough for dinners, and go with everything in your suitcase.
Workwear
In Austin's casual office culture, Golden Goose works with tailored pants and a nice blazer. Polished but not uptight.
Popular Golden Goose Styles
Super-Star
The most iconic style. Classic low-top silhouette with the signature star on the side. Comes in endless colorways and finishes.
Ball Star
A slightly different shape with a basketball-inspired design. Great if you want something a little different from the classic.
Hi Star
Platform sole for a little extra height while maintaining the casual sneaker vibe.
Dad-Star
Chunkier silhouette for those who like the "dad sneaker" trend but want designer quality.
Caring for Your Golden Goose
A few tips to keep your GGs looking great:
- Don't over-clean them. The distressed look is intentional — they're meant to look lived-in.
- Spot clean when needed with a soft brush or cloth.
- Protect the leather with a leather conditioner occasionally.
- Store them properly with shoe trees to maintain shape.
