The Shoe Goomba, originally named Kuribo's Goomba in an early Nintendo Power guide (meaning Goomba's Goomba, making it a likely translation error), is a variant of Goomba that rides in a Goomba's Shoe. It first appeared in Super Mario Bros. 3, where it can be found in World 5-3 of Sky Land.
A Shoe Goomba can be defeated by either jumping on its head or by jumping at it from below by bashing the block its standing on. However, using the former method causes the Goomba's Shoe to fall offscreen alongside the Shoe Goomba whereas the latter method knock the Goomba out of the shoe so that Mario or Luigi can enter it. Regardless, defeating a Shoe Goomba earns the player 100 points.
Shoe Goombas re-appeared in Super Mario Maker and eventually Super Mario Maker 2, where they behave identically as in Super Mario Bros. 3. They are only usable in the Super Mario Bros. and Super Mario Bros. 3 styles.
