If you’re obsessed with the way Golden Goose sneakers look effortlessly cool, you’re not alone. It seems like everyone on our Instagram feed owns at least one pair of the coveted distressed shoes, and the FOMO is REAL. If you’re lucky enough to have a pair of the original shoes sitting in your closet, you know the large price tag they come with. But, if making a whopping $600 purchase is giving you the shakes (same here), then might we introduce you to some more cost-friendly, yet equally as cool, alternatives that you can shop?
Sometimes designer alternatives look nothing like the originals after you buy them. But thankfully, there are plenty of Golden Goose dupes that get the job done. So much so that it would take a Golden Goose expert to point out which pair is real and which isn’t if they were side-by-side. These alternatives don’t sacrifice quality or comfort as some other options might. Plus, they’re a fraction of the cost of the original shoes.
