Thanks but I actually returned it since the leather on this one is actually softer than other GG. Also, the sole is patent leather and my friend scared me that she had shoes turning yellow

That makes sense, they are both great picks, sometimes you can just tell better in person vs. looking at photos which one is for you.
My first pair and I can already tell it won’t be my last!
I have a narrow 9/9.5 foot and shoes can end up looking like boats on me! Went with a 40- they fit great and don’t make my feet look huge. Love them!

I didn’t think I’d ever get a pair but here we are. 
I stumbled on a store selling a ton of styles for just $200-ish in Japan. This pair called out to me, and they had just 1 left which happened to be my size and were only $160. They’re very interesting but still low key GG.

They had all these styles, and a few others, for about $150-250. I’m guessing GG isn’t yet popular enough in Japan to snatch these up.
The amazing pink croc (?) pair were only $150 but only had size 35 left - I’m a 38. It was painful to walk away from those.

Hope you kept both, they’re awesome!
I could never understand the appeal of GG, especially the distressed ones (still don’t), but they are starting to grow on me. I also realised that some times their profile shape resembles a goose beak! I’m thinking about getting a pair now
I ended up keeping the pink star! There’s a pair currently available that is the holographic glitter but with the normal neutral star and details. Kind of wish I’d held out for that one instead:
GGs are hugely addicting. My collection is not small, but I have a hard time parting with them. Because they are all “so different” (which makes me think of that scene in Devil Wears Prada where Miranda’s employee is presenting 2 turquoise belts that look the exact same to Andie, but she calls them “so different.”)
I just bought this exact pair! Is your 9/9.5 foot your US size, what do you wear in European shoes? I ask because I wear a 40.5 and the 40s were just a bit short but the 41s seem a bit big.
Hi. I’m wondering if anyone can help me with Golden Goose sizing. My shoe size really depends on the shoe. I have a wide foot. Most of my shoes are 40.5 and some 40s, some 41. I ordered a size 40 and 41 in GG and the 40 my toe is just about at the end and the 41 my foot slips. I have about a half inch from my toe to end of the shoe, which I know is normally right but the shoes slip a bit. I really want a pair and I’m not sure what to do. I wish they made have sizes. A 40.5 would be perfect. Any advice/input? Thank you.
If the 40 pinches it's too small, I think with a wide foot erring on the larger side would be better anyway. With a sneaker you can just lace it a little tighter or add an insert if too large. I'm a pretty true 41 (sometimes 42, I would only be able to wear 40 in a sandal or mule not a closed shoe) but narrow, I have long big toes. I don't have any GG but have tried them on, I was size 41, they seem true to size to me, width seemed normal, so I'd probably decide based on how width is fitting too, even if length is okay if it's too narrow sizing up would help with this.
Bought these camo Superstars a couple of weeks ago. Now I'm isolating with them 
These arrived today I’ve been wanting a pair of snakeskin superstars for the longest time and was so glad to have snagged this! For reference I’m a true 7.5 in most shoes (and have wide feet), and so got 38 in these. I’m also a 38 in mid stars and ball stars. They all fit great!

I just ordered a pair from Farfetch, I’ve bought a few pairs from them and I’ve been very happy! I bought this pair and should get them by Tuesday. But then I was browsing on the GG site and saw them there with more pictures. And I saw that they’re mismatched shoes, they have opposite colors on each shoe! I am not sure I’m loving this and probably wouldn’t have ordered them. I can always return them, or I can wear them happily despite them being two different shoes. What do you all think? At least I saw this now before I opened the box and thought there was a mistake! (The bottom picture is the one from Farfetch.) 
I think it’s a cool look! Even though they’re different colors, they complement each other (and you can tell they are part of the same pair). I’d say try them on when you get them and see how you feel.

Thanks for your response! That’s a good point about how they complement each other and you can tell they’re part of the same pair. Maybe they’ll work for me!
I tried a different size as well, my Superstars are a 36 but they’re a bit big on me so I ordered a 35 this time. My heel slides around a lot and I think a 35 would be better. The sizing seems a bit all over the place so maybe I’ll get it right this time. I have a pair of slides that are a 35 and they’re a much better fit. I’m thinking that for once I’ll get the sizing right and I’ll dislike the shoe! Lol!
