The Best Golden Goose Dupes and Where to Find Them

Golden Goose sneakers are so popular these days, but they are also pretty expensive in terms of a tennis shoe.  I’ve searched for the ultimate Golden Goose dupes so that you can have that well known star sneaker look at a fraction of the cost.  But first, you might be wondering, what are Golden Goose sneakers?

 

What are Golden Goose Sneakers

You may have heard about the popular designer tennis shoes that intentionally look lived in and distressed. Golden Goose sneakers have been around since 2000, founded in Venice, Italy by designers Francesca Rinaldo and Alessandro Gallo.

Likely the most popular style is the Golden Goose super-star, which is a skateboarding-inspired low-top sneaker, scuffed and distressed by hand to have that perfectly worn-in look.

Another popular style is the Golden Goose sneakers Mid Star, which is a high top version of the star sneaker. Golden Goose sneakers are the perfect way to compliment outfits for leather leggings when you are looking for a chic but casual outfit idea.  Just throw on your sneakers, grab a crossbody bag and go.  They are so versatile, they can even be worn to Christmas holiday party!

Why do Golden Goose sneakers look dirty

The Golden Goose manifest states that “In our family, we want everything to be as non-perfect as possible. Life is not perfect, we inject life into what we do.”  And as dads do, I can just hear my dad saying “did you pay extra for that dirt?” Well yes, in this case you do!

 

How much do Golden Goose Sneakers cost

While there are many different styles of Gold Goose sneakers for women on the market, they range in price from $495 to $615. What makes Golden Goose sneakers so expensive is the fact that each pair is hand-made in Italy as well as hand-distressed, so they take longer to produce.

Can you ever find Golden Goose on sale

While I pride myself on finding deals and discount items, I have yet to find Golden Goose sneakers on sale.  However, you can find Golden goose dupes for much much less!
