Californian skater Cory Juneau will make his Olympic debut in Tokyo and be the protagonist of a special event that Golden Goose will host in Venice on Sept. 6.
MILAN — Skateboarding is making its debut at the Olympic Games that open in Tokyo on Friday, and the leader of the U.S. National Team will look cooler than ever.
This is the first time the brand, which is known for its intentionally distressed luxury sneakers, is partnering with an athlete. “Golden Goose truly believes that people who stand out for their athletic achievements share our same values such as dedication, passion and fairness. From the first minute we saw Cory, we understood he was the perfect fit to represent the brand, not only because Golden Goose has always been inspired and influenced by skate culture, but also for the values he embodies. A lighthearted, humble and hard-working guy ready to take on his biggest challenge,” the CEO added.
“Being part of the Golden Goose family is a dream come true. This is just the beginning of my professional career and I’m extremely lucky to be able work with a team that’s so welcoming, authentic and creative,” said Juneau. “Skateboarding is real, raw and honest, but also has a family vibe, a real sense of belonging. From my first meeting with the Golden family I felt at home. I remember telling myself, ‘this feels right.
