A Chinese media/buyer report describes an LV slide/sandal purchased at a mainland boutique fading (losing color) after about a week of wear, with the testing center reportedly calling it normal wear — suggesting color-fastness complaints exist for LV slides.

This is a brown LV slide listing with a claimed imported upper and leather insole, offered across a wide size range through a shopping agent. No buyer feedback on this specific item exists in the record, so the fit and material claims stay unverified. Use the category sizing notes below and confirm sizes with your agent before ordering.
Reference price
$22.39 USD $26.83Final item price, service fees and international shipping are confirmed on the shopping agent's website.
Pros
- · Listing specifies an Italian-imported upper with multicolor piecing and an imported leather insole described as soft.
- · The open slide silhouette is easy on and off, and the listing covers a broad range of sizes.
Cons
- · A Chinese buyer/media report describes an LV slide fading after about a week of boutique wear, with a testing center reportedly calling it normal wear — color-fastness complaints exist for LV slides generally.
- · Buyer posts describe strap and footbed-edge pressure for wide or high-instep feet on this slide style.
- · The listing states two different size ranges — 38–46 in the feature text and 35–45 in the spec line — so confirm the available sizes with the agent.
Fit notes
Buyer posts on LV slides generally report true-to-size fit, with some wearers sizing down for mule and slide styles. A Chinese guide advises wide-foot or high-instep wearers to size up, and flags heel slippage for narrow feet. Check strap placement and footbed grip; treat painful strap pressure as a deal-breaker rather than waiting for break-in.
Buy if
Buyers who want the brown LV slide look and are willing to confirm size and materials with a shopping agent. The category sizing notes — generally true to size, size up for wide or high-instep feet — give a reasonable starting point even without item-specific feedback.
Skip if
Skip if you need item-specific buyer feedback on color-fastness or materials before committing, or if you have a wide forefoot and cannot try the pair on first — sourced reports note strap and footbed-edge pressure on LV slides.

Buying FAQ
Common questions
Does this slide run true to size?⌄
Buyers on r/Louisvuitton report that LV flat sandals and slides generally run true to size, while the brand's athletic sneakers run about half a size big and some mules run slightly big. No sizing feedback exists for this specific listing, so treat that as a starting point only.
Should wide feet size up?⌄
A Chinese buyer guide for LV slides and sandals advises wide-foot or high-instep wearers to size up, because the standard footbed edge and strap can press into the foot. Narrow-footed buyers may instead get heel slippage.
Is the color going to hold up?⌄
A Chinese media/buyer report describes an LV slide purchased at a mainland boutique losing color after about a week of wear, with a testing center reportedly calling it normal wear. That is category context; nothing in the record verifies color-fastness for this item.
What sizes are actually available?⌄
The listing gives 38–46 in the feature text and 35–45 in the spec line, so the two ranges do not match. Ask your shopping agent to confirm which sizes are in stock before you order.
How should I handle strap pressure?⌄
A buyer-experience post on LV slides advises sizing up if the heel hangs off the footbed, checking strap placement and footbed grip if the foot slides forward, and treating painful strap pressure as a deal-breaker rather than assuming it will break in.
