I realllllly struggled with my first pair of SUPERSTARS.
My DH ordered me a pair in 38 (I’m a 7.5) to wear to football games (he’s a good sport, he’s trying really hard to make me like football lol)
They have a croc tongue and were SOOOO freaking stiff, and heavy and slipped up/down on my heel every step. I tried no show socks but the slipping just pulled the socks down under my foot. I tried wearing without socks and that was excruciating!
I refused to tell him these $1100 sneakers were killing me.....
I finally found these crazy toe socks that helped. They’re kinda hilarious but they work!!

Now I can wear them, but they’re not comfy. I don’t love Superstars but my DH has decided he loves buying me GG.... no idea why lol
Wish he’d realize he loves buying me Cartier!

I don’t have Purestars but I’ve fallen love with Ball Stars! The toe box is more generous.

Girl I found those toe socks two days ago and saved my life!!!! They’re super comfy now!!! Yes the socks are kind of funny but THEY WORK! No more tape and wearing them almost everyday

My first pair. I went the half size up as suggested. They fit well and I like them best without socks. I measured them against other sneakers that I have and the length is about the same so I guess the sizing is correct. If I ever get into a dept store I will be curious to try a half size down.

Does anyone own the purestar sneakers? I've searched quite a bit online but can hardly find any information on them. The superstars didn't work for me. I think my foot is too wide for the 39 but too short for the 40 so it looked very long. Debating whether to get 39 or 40 in the purestars? For reference I wear a 38 in the common projects low tournaments (I have 4 pairs of them because they fit so well) but I feel like I should buy a different sneaker this time.

It’s my first pair. I am usually a US size 8 and has the Purestar in size 39. Just bought my 2nd/3rd pairs today and got the Ball Star (38) and Stardan (39)

was not a fan of the Superstar

Anyone own the running sole? Hows the fit? I love my superstars but wanted to change it up a bit.

Which neutral pair?

Purestar leather is more malleable than the other models. I have ultra wide feet [6.5 extra wide) and sz 37 fits perfectly.

I love the Running Sole and it definitely runs big. I am a size 6 and usually wear 35 in GG in most styles but the Running Sole is still a bit big for me in a 35. I wear a sock and it’s very comfortable for me but it’s a heavy shoe, heavier than the Slides or Superstars.

I hope that helps! Let us know what you end up getting!

All my super stars are 39. Should I then order a 38? Thank you!

Coco.lover, I would order a 38 if I were you, the Running Sole seems to run big. I read many reviews before I ordered mine and most people seemed to feel the same way.

But if the 38 is too tight on you I will feel terrible! If there’s any way to order both sizes and return one that would be the best way. I still think the 38 is the way to go though.

I hate socks with mine too. They eat my socks, lol! My socks slide under my foot because the shoes are heavy and slide up/down a bit. I found these really strange looking socks from Target that cover just my toes and I swear by them with my GG.

Thank you for recommending the Peds! I got some from Amazon since we don’t have a Target where I am. Can’t wait to test them with my SS. They are my least favourite style to wear but I love how they look and don’t want to get rid of them...yet. If these toe socks work, I can give them another chance!

After stalking this thread for the longest time, I finally bought my first pair of GG! I got white leather ballstars with pink accents. They were on sale too ! The only thing I was worried about was the sizing, but 38 turned out to be a perfect fit.

I'd love to add a pair of superstars or slides next. Do those fit tts? I'd like to get at least one more pair soon. Thanks!

Hi Ladies, I'm new to GG shoes and they're soo cute. I don't know much about the shoes but I noticed some superstars have number next to them and some don't. What is the difference?
