FAQs

How do I clean the leopard-print ponyskin upper?

Use a soft-bristled suede brush to gently clean the ponyskin. For tougher spots, a small amount of specialized suede cleaner can be used, followed by brushing. Always test any cleaning product on a small, inconspicuous area first.

Are these trainers suitable for wide feet?

The Super-Star trainers have a standard fit. While the leather will mold to your foot over time, they may not be ideal for very wide feet without a break-in period. Consider trying them on if possible.

What is the 'vintage-effect' finish?

The vintage-effect finish is a deliberate design choice that gives the trainers a pre-worn, authentic look. It involves specific treatments to the leather and materials to achieve a unique, slightly distressed aesthetic.

How should I care for the distressed leather elements?

Avoid excessive cleaning or harsh products on distressed areas. A soft, dry cloth is best for general dusting. For scuffs, gentle buffing is recommended. Professional shoe care services can offer specialized treatments.

What material is the signature star made of?

The signature star is typically made of leather, often in a contrasting color to the main upper material, adding to the shoe's distinctive look.

Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?

While the trainers are made of leather, the ponyskin and distressed finish are not ideal for heavy rain or wet conditions. It is recommended to avoid wearing them in wet weather to preserve their appearance and material integrity. Using a water-repellent spray can offer some protection.

What is the sole made of?

The sole of the Golden Goose Super-Star trainers is made of 100% rubber, providing durability and grip.

Troubleshooting

Scuffs or marks on the vintage finish

Gently try to buff out minor scuffs with a soft, dry cloth. For more significant marks, consult a professional shoe repair specialist familiar with luxury footwear and distressed finishes.

Ponyskin texture appears flattened or dirty

Use a soft-bristled suede brush to gently lift and clean the ponyskin. Brush in the direction of the nap. For stubborn dirt, a specialized suede cleaner might be necessary, applied sparingly.

Laces become dirty or worn

The laces can be removed and hand-washed with mild soap and water, then air-dried. Replacement laces can be purchased from Golden Goose or specialized shoe accessory retailers.

Discomfort or rubbing during initial wear

This is common with new leather footwear. Wear the trainers for short periods initially to break them in. Consider using thin socks or specialized shoe stretchers if persistent discomfort occurs.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

These trainers require no specific setup; they are ready to wear upon purchase. They are compatible with most casual and smart-casual outfits. To care for your Golden Goose Super-Star trainers:

  • Cleaning: Wipe the leather and ponyskin parts with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as they can damage the material and the vintage finish.
  • Suede/Ponyskin: Use a specialized suede brush to maintain the texture and appearance of the ponyskin and suede elements.
  • Sole: Clean the rubber sole with a damp cloth.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in the original dust bag to protect them from dust and scratches.
  • Protection: Consider using a leather protector spray suitable for suede and leather to provide an additional layer of defense against stains and moisture, but test on an inconspicuous area first.
