Hi, has anyone had any issues with their glitter slides with the glitter falling off? I have a pair of metallic slides, which I love but some of the metallic parts have cracked and peeled off after <6 months of wear. TIA!!


Hi, what I have always done when I'm afraid the glitter or crystal falling off the shoes is to put a thin coat of clear nail polish (top coat) on top. I barely have any glitter falling off after that. Not sure how to fix your cracks though, seem like the leather is tearing apart instead.

Great tip, thank you! I may be able to do the same on my slides, the metallic is actually a coating on the top of the leather and doesn't have any give as the leather stretches.
 
I couldn't find the head-I'll look again! I couldn't believe how many fakes were online-so surprising. I've found some addl sites that appear to be legit brick and mortar stores in Europe, but it's surprising that they are so much less than the US.
 
Which style of high top? I'm a US7 and wear a 36 in the Slides but a 37 in the 2.12. I don't have the Francy style, so can't comment. My foot is on the narrow side but not enough to require a narrow width in every shoe.

Which store are you buying from? I usually don't see GG sizing listed that way. Instead sizes are usually listed as US7/IT37, US8/IT8, etc.
Hi, sorry to ask you a question from your reply that's 12 months old but can I get an idea of the sizing for the 2.12. Are they tight or loose?
 
Hello, I'm looking to buy a pair of 2.12 and want some advice on sizing. Should I get a 38 or 39?
I'm a size 38 in Acne Pistols which fits fine. And size 38 in Maison Margiela sneakers although my toe is touching the front in these.

Hi! The 2.12 fits true to size but a little loose on me as I do have a narrow-ish foot. I'm usually a 37 and that's my size in GGDB except for their Slide sneakers. Most people including me go down a size in the Slides. You should probably get a 38. If they are smidge tight, then replace the wedge insole with a thinner one and that should give you some wiggle room. Good luck!

ETA: I found a size guide from GGDB's online store. Go to this link and click "Size Guide". http://www.goldengoosedeluxebrand.c...with-leather-star-pro-29E599-F93SN#id_sneaker

OMG I love these i dont even know why i love them I just do and i am normally a 6.5 in american shoes and sz 37 in all euopean shoes... castenar, tods, you name it and I think 37 would fit... what do you guys think ? I hope im not too late to reply but after studying these and obsessing over them while running on the treadmill ... I think i want them. Question tho if i am a size 8/10 and only 5'1 would they look bad bec my legs are curvy? Let me know what you guys think!! <3
