Product Information
Full details
The Golden Goose Soul-Star Trainers are designed for fashion-conscious adults seeking a blend of luxury and comfort in their everyday footwear. Their key benefit lies in their unique, vintage-inspired aesthetic combined with premium materials, offering a statement piece that elevates casual outfits. A potential caveat for users is the inherent 'lived-in' vintage finish, which is intentional but may differ from expectations of a brand-new appearance. These trainers feature laminated leather uppers, a comfortable rubber sole, soft insole, lace-up fastening, and distinctive branding.

FAQs
Are these trainers true to size?
Golden Goose trainers are generally considered true to size. However, it's always recommended to consult sizing charts and consider the specific fit of the Soul-Star model if possible.
How do I clean the metallic finish?
Wipe gently with a soft, dry cloth. If necessary, use a slightly damp cloth and allow to air dry. Avoid abrasive cleaners or polishes that could damage the metallic coating or vintage effect.
What does the 'vintage finish' mean?
The 'vintage finish' is an intentional design element by Golden Goose to give the sneakers a worn-in, pre-loved look. This includes subtle distressing and unique markings that are part of the shoe's character.
Can I wear these in wet weather?
While the rubber sole offers some protection, the leather upper is not waterproof. It is best to avoid wearing these trainers in heavy rain or wet conditions to preserve the leather and finish.
What is the sole made of?
The sole is made of 100% rubber, designed for durability and traction.
What materials are used for the lining?
The lining is composed of 45% textile polyurethane, 33% cotton, 14% viscose, and 8% polyester.
Are there other color options available?
The Soul-Star series is available in various colorways and finishes. Please check the product listing or retailer for current availability.
Troubleshooting
Scuff marks on the vintage finish
The vintage finish is intentional. Minor scuffs are part of the design. For significant marks, consult the care instructions and use appropriate leather cleaners for distressed finishes.
Discomfort after initial wear
New leather shoes can sometimes feel stiff. Wear them for short periods initially to break them in. Ensure laces are adjusted for a comfortable fit. The soft insole should provide comfort over time.
Leather appears dull
Use a dedicated leather conditioner or cream suitable for the specific type of leather (laminated, distressed). Test on an inconspicuous area first. A soft brush can help restore some luster.

Care Instructions:
- Upper: Wipe the leather upper with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust. For more stubborn dirt, use a slightly damp cloth and allow to air dry. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
- Lining: The textile and polyurethane lining can be gently spot-cleaned with a damp cloth if necessary. Ensure the interior is fully dry before wearing.
- Sole: Clean the rubber sole with a damp cloth. For tougher scuffs, a mild soap solution can be used, followed by a thorough rinse with a clean, damp cloth.
- Laces: The laces can be removed and hand-washed with mild detergent, then air-dried. Consider replacing them if they become excessively worn.
- Storage: Store the trainers in a cool, dry place, ideally in their original box or a dust bag, to protect them from dust and moisture. Avoid direct sunlight for prolonged periods, which can affect the leather's color and finish.
