Fit notes
There is no measured fit data for this listing. Claims on Balenciaga slides split: snug molded footbeds and firm straps lead some owners to size up, while others report a slightly too big fit and blisters. A community sizing guide says fit varies by model, with one size down only for models known to run big.
Buy if
You want a casual thong-style slide and can confirm with the seller which model and which size range you're getting — the listing shows two different ranges. Because fit reports conflict, buying is simplest where you can try them or send them back.
Skip if
You need one clear sizing answer before buying. The available claims split between snug and loose, and they describe Balenciaga slides generally rather than this listing. Without a confirmed model, the fit is a guess.
