Does anyone know if superstars can be repaired? My heels are getting pretty worn down. TIA!

I don’t have recommendations, but am also curious about repairs. I am a recent GGDB junkie and have bought both preloved and new and started researching this subject. I’ve been through the entire thread and others have asked the question but there haven’t been any responses. Just concern by others for their own pairs of sneakers. Your’s is the most recent query. I hope someone with a positive repair experience chimes in. Thanks for asking.

I'm in the process of getting Stardans repaired because the leather starting to peel away on both shoes :( I haven't received back yet, but fingers crossed they turn out ok!

I don’t know that I could keep both (I probably shouldn’t), and while conceptually they are they same, they have some important differences (to me):

1) I think the silver star is more versatile, a good balance
2) hot pink Star is more fun!
3) hello matching hot pink sole
4) purple is my uni color
5) holo tongue is preference to purple suede tongue
6) believe it or not the glitter has differences. Silver star glitter is less coarse and a bit more subdued.

Thoughts?

Oh my gosh that’s a hard choice! I love them both but my eye keeps going to the pink star. They stand out a bit more, in a good way, and seem more versatile. I find pink to match most things in my wardrobe so again that’s a personal preference but I’d keep the pink ones. Love them both though! You’ve got great taste!

Does anyone own a pair of Gucci Ace sneakers as well as the regular GG superstar and would let me know the sizes they own both in? I'm a 37.5 in my Gucci Ace and usually a 38 in most shoes .. do I get the GG in a 38 then? The ones I want are exclusive to one website and they don't do free returns so I'd appreciate your help

I like the black star, but I’m a tad more subdued. I love the silver glitter in general. Go with what sings to you and/or keep what is most different and fills a hole in what you already own.
 
I wear a 34 in Gucci Ace and 35 in Golden Goose Superstars. I would go with your normal size in other shoes, Gucci Aces run large.
