Once wearing a Goomba's Shoe, Mario will be able to easily hop across [[Spike Trap|spike]]s and sharp-toothed or spiky [[List of enemies|enemies]], such as [[Muncher]]s and [[Spiny|Spinies]]. Once the end of the level is reached, though, Mario will lose the Goomba's Shoe. In the original Japanese version, a hit will also cause Mario to shrink to [[Small Mario]] in addition to losing the shoe. However, if the player was already small, Mario will only lose the shoe, as in the international versions of the games.
