A casual Balenciaga summer slide in yellow, listed in sizes 38–44 with 45 on custom order. Buyer reports on this line are split on sizing and describe cushioned footbeds as the comfort feature to check; nothing independently verifies this specific pair. Ask the seller for a measured footbed length before ordering.

Fit notes
The catalog lists 38–44 with 45 as a custom order; the spec line runs 35–45. Buyer reports conflict: some say true to size and advise against sizing down, others received a slightly big pair in their true size. A community guide for this line advises sizing down one, or two if between sizes.
Buy if

Skip if
You need one firm sizing answer before buying, or you need outsole durability confirmed for this exact pair — that isn't covered by the available buyer reports.
