We define two classes of hypersurfaces in real space forms, golden- and product-shaped, respectively, by imposing the shape operator to be of golden or product type. We obtain the whole families of above hypersurfaces, based on the classification of isoparametric hypersurfaces, as follows: in the golden case all are hyperspheres, a hyperbolic space and a generalized Clifford torus, while for the product case we obtain the unit hypersphere, the hyperplane, a hypersphere and its associated Clifford torus, respectively, according to the type of the ambient space form namely parabolic, hyperbolic or elliptic, respectively.
