[11] Golo is probably best recognized for the invention of the go-go boot in 1964 [12] which was proudly worn by Barbra Streisand and photographed by Richard Avedon in the August 1965 issue of Vogue.
The earliest go-go boots were mid-calf, white and flat-heeled, as seen in the work of the designer André Courrèges, who is sometimes credited with creating the style.
[10][13] The simple minimalism of the Courrèges boot was easily and widely reproduced for the mass market.
[13] Tim Gunn suggests that Sinatra helped establish the boot as "a symbol of female power".
[17] In October 2022, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis drew media attention for wearing footwear that resembled white go-go boots while touring areas of Florida devastated by Hurricane Ian, a Category 5 storm.
