Golden Goose is a Venetian house whose sneaker is recognisable by the star on the side and by its deliberately worn finish. At Prego, every pair is authenticated by our experts before it goes on sale.
The models we carry. The Super-Star is the original, low and wide. The Ball Star takes the same silhouette with a solid star and a leaner profile. The Dad-Star sits on a thick sole. The Running Sole borrows from nineties running, with a lugged sole and mesh panels.
Factory patina, not wear. This is the brand's quirk and the source of most questions: a Golden Goose leaves the workshop already distressed. Soiled sole, cracked star, mismatched laces, all of it is intentional and part of the new product. The condition we state on each listing therefore describes the real wear added on top of that finish, never the finish itself. And our photos show exactly the pair you are buying.
