FAQs
Are Golden Goose Ball Star trainers true to size?
Yes, they generally follow standard adult sizing. It is recommended to choose your typical UK shoe size.
Can I put these trainers in the washing machine?
No, machine washing can damage the leather, suede, and the specific distressed finish.
Why do the shoes look worn when they are new?
The distressed aesthetic is a signature feature of Golden Goose trainers, designed to provide a unique, broken-in vintage look.
Are these suitable for athletic running?
These trainers are designed for casual, everyday wear and are not intended for high-impact sports or long-distance running.
How do I protect the leather from water damage?
You can apply a leather-safe water repellent spray to the leather portions, but be careful to avoid the suede inserts unless using a product specifically safe for both materials.
Troubleshooting
Difficulty maintaining suede cleanliness
Use a dedicated suede eraser and brush to gently lift dirt without damaging the texture.
Laces becoming loose during wear
Ensure the laces are threaded properly through all eyelets and consider a double-knot if necessary.
Creasing in the leather upper
This is a natural occurrence with high-quality leather; using shoe trees when not in use helps maintain the shape.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
When you receive your trainers, ensure the sizing matches your specific foot measurements, as the fit is standard for adult UK sizing. To keep your Ball Star trainers in optimal condition, avoid exposing the leather and suede to excessive moisture or harsh cleaning chemicals. For daily upkeep, gently wipe the leather sections with a soft, dry cloth. If the suede inserts gather dirt, use a specialized suede brush to restore the nap. Store the shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the leather from drying out or fading over time.
