A platform slide for buyers who want the Monday Ultra shape and a 4.5 cm sole. The listing describes the upper, lining, outsole and sizes; the only buyer claims available are brand-wide Balenciaga sizing threads, not reports on this item. Settle sizing and the title's brand wording with the seller before ordering.

Pros
Cons
Fit notes
No sizing claim covers this listing. Balenciaga community threads conflict: the Monday silhouette is said to run large and take a size down, while slide threads split between sizing up and finding true size slightly too big, with narrow-footed buyers advised to size down. Ask the seller for insole measurements.
Buy if
You want a thick-soled slide with a distressed woven upper and a side 3B badge, you wear men's 39–45, and you are willing to confirm fit and returns with the seller before committing.
Skip if
You need confirmed fit before buying — Balenciaga slide sizing reports conflict and nothing here covers this listing. Skip it if you want a low-profile sandal rather than a 4.5 cm platform.
