Italian brand Golden Goose introduces its new Dad-Star sneaker model to celebrate Sneakers Day on October 9th. The silhouette celebrates the evolution of a sneaker. As the functional piece goes through the strains of life, it becomes distressed overtime. The sneaker is a prominent model in luxury fashion amongst many other archetypes.
The Dad-Star is a strong design that stems from the 90s, delivering vintage elements with versatile accents informed by innovative fabrication. The design language is true to Golden Goose, with the retained classic star motif accenting the sides, distressed details, and the exposed foam at the tongue. It is offered in two colorway options in either Silver or Gold. It boasts monochromatic panels such as laminated leather with ballistic nylon.
