View QC PhotosQuick verdict
A gray casual slide offered from size 35 to 45 in three color options. Most available buyer commentary concerns sizing, not this pair: Balenciaga slides are described as running small, so plan on half to a full size up. Independent evidence for this exact item is limited to a single QC thread, so confirm size availability and materials with the seller before ordering.

Pros
Cons
Fit notes
Buyers advise against assuming your regular size works: most recommend half to a full size up, especially for wider feet, and describe Balenciaga slides as running small. The listing shows conflicting ranges (35–45 in one place, 38–46 in another), so confirm your size before ordering.
Buy if
You want an inexpensive gray casual slide, you can go half to a full size up, and you are willing to confirm size range and materials with the seller before ordering.
Skip if
You need long-term durability or shape retention, or you want a purchase supported by more than one buyer account; the durability notes and thin evidence do not support that.
