Golden Goose Stardan Sneaker - White - Gold - UK 12

The Stardan Sneaker generally runs true to Italian sizing. It is recommended to check the brand's specific size chart and consider your foot width. Some users find they may need to size down if between sizes.

The distressed sole can be cleaned with a damp cloth. Avoid abrasive materials or strong cleaning agents that could further alter the intended worn appearance.

While the rubber sole offers some protection, these sneakers are primarily designed for dry conditions. The leather and suede components are not waterproof and can be damaged by excessive moisture.

The 'worn-effect' is a deliberate design feature that mimics the look of a well-loved, vintage sneaker, contributing to its unique aesthetic. It does not indicate damage or prior use.

Use a soft suede brush to clean dirt and maintain the nap of the suede. For tougher marks, a suede eraser can be used. Always allow suede to dry naturally if it becomes wet.

The Stardan model is inspired by 90s basketball silhouettes, often featuring a more robust design and distinctive distressing compared to other models like the Superstar or Ball Star.

Golden Goose sneakers typically come in a standard width. The Italian sizing and leather construction allow for some adaptation to the wearer's foot shape over time.

This can sometimes occur due to friction between the insole and the shoe's interior. Try sprinkling a small amount of talcum powder or cornstarch under the insole.

Creasing is natural with leather. Ensure proper fit; if the shoes are too large, excessive creasing may occur. Use shoe trees to help maintain shape when not in use.

The distressed effect is intentional and varies by design. If you notice significant damage beyond the intended aesthetic, contact customer support.

New suede items can sometimes transfer color. Avoid prolonged contact with light-colored materials, especially when the shoes are new or wet. Consider using a suede protector.
