- · Size run spans 38–46, with 39–45 itemized — a wide range for a slide.

Fit notes
Reports conflict. A Balenciaga community guide says the slides run large and recommends sizing down, but notes that going too small can make the strap opening uncomfortable; a separate thread splits between true-to-size and size-down. The listing covers 38–46 with 39–45 itemized. Request insole measurements before ordering.
Buy if
You want a plain gray slip-on slide and are willing to confirm sizing yourself — ask the agent for insole measurements before choosing among 39–45.
Skip if
You need a settled sizing answer or a closed, snug fit. Slides reviews conflict, and one wearer note says open slides sit awkwardly on wider, lower-arched feet.

Buying FAQ
Common questions
How do these slides fit?⌄
Buyer reports disagree: one community guide says Balenciaga slides run large and suggests sizing down, while another thread splits between true-to-size and size-down. Ask your agent for the insole length in the size you want.
What materials does the listing specify?⌄
It names a PU upper and a rubber outsole described as anti-slip and wear-resistant. Those are catalog descriptions of intended construction, not results from testing this pair.
Does anyone report how these compare to retail?⌄
No one in the available claims inspected this listing. A separate replica thread reports slides that look indistinguishable from retail and often ship with the box, but that is other buyers' purchases, not this item.
Will the open silhouette suit my feet?⌄
One wearer note says open slides look unflattering on wider, lower-arched East Asian foot shapes. If that matches your concern, a closed or wider-strap sandal may be the safer shape.
