Have you wondered why the shoes you bought a couple of months ago at the mall are already worn out and broken?
It’s probably not you, it’s your shoes.
You’ve probably heard the term “fast fashion”. Fast fashion brands are those that sell clothing, shoes, and accessories at a veeeeery low price. Such clothing is mass-produced and it usually copies designs seen at fashion shows.
Nice clothing at a very low price? Sounds nice right?
Well… not really!
This has probably happened to you at some point: you see the CUTEST high heels, just like the ones Kendall or Beyoncé own. The best thing is that they only cost $30, so you obviously have to buy them (duh!). After a couple of months you decide to wear them for your BFF’s birthday party. Everything is going perfect, you dance and have lots of fun until… one of your high heels breaks!
Sadly, this is quite normal when it comes to fast fashion clothing and accessories.
Picture this: the shoes you buy at this type of stores cost around $30. Brands have to pay the wages of their employees, the transportation costs to bring the shoes all the way to your city, the marketing costs to advertise them… and many other expenses. How much money does the brand have left to buy high quality materials? Not much!
"I can't afford high quality materials"
At Gogue, we are against fast fashion. We love the high-quality, design, and durability of all our shoes.
And yes, we know high-quality products (like ours) may seem expensive when compared to $30 shoes. However, we can promise you our shoes will last wayyyyy longer (and will surely be way more comfy!)
When shopping at Gogue, you won’t have to worry about your high heel breaking in the middle of the dancefloor, your flats changing color after only 3 times of wearing them, or having sweaty feet after wearing your boots for 4 hours 🥵
We assure you our shoes will be part of your wardrobe for a loooong time thanks to the high quality materials we use, as well as the talented and hardworking hands that design and produce our shoes (yes, all our shoes are handcrafted!)
