Quick verdict

A gray LV slide in the star-strap family, listed across EU 35–45 with 38 and 46 handled as custom orders and a build that includes an elasticized ankle section. No independent buyer evidence covers this exact pair, so fit rests on LV slide-level sizing guidance: confirm insole length and width with the seller before ordering.

Pros

  • · Listing covers EU 35–45 overall, with men's 39–45 and 38 and 46 noted as custom orders.
  • · Build notes describe an elasticized section at the shoe's waist for a closer hold around the ankle.
  • · Catalog describes a molded star-grain outsole and smooth, clear-finish hardware buckles rather than thin star detailing.
  • · Midsole cloth is described as a custom alternating solid-and-open printed pattern.

Cons

  • No independently verified downside is available for this item.

Fit notes

Published LV slide guidance reports a narrow European last: wide-footed or high-instep buyers commonly need 0.5–1 cm extra room, often a full size up, and leather slides stretch only about 0.3 cm in width. The LV Trainer sneaker's "runs large, size down" advice is line-level to that model and should be verified against this slide, not assumed. Confirm insole measurements with the seller.

Buy if

Buyers who want a gray star-strap slide and can use the wide EU 35–45 run, including custom 38 and 46. A reasonable match if you treat the sizing as line-level guidance, confirm insole measurements with the seller, and can absorb a possible size exchange.

Skip if

Buyers who need independently verified fit or wear reporting on this exact model before committing. Also a mismatch for wide-footed or high-instep wearers unwilling to accept a likely full-size-up adjustment on a narrow European last.

Buying FAQ

Common questions

Does the LV Trainer "runs large, size down" advice apply to these slides?⌄

That guidance comes from LV's own LV Trainer sneaker pages and is line-level to the Trainer family. It should be checked against this slide variant rather than assumed.

What does the published LV slide sizing guide say about fit?⌄

It reports a narrow European last, with wide-footed or high-instep buyers commonly needing about 0.5–1 cm of extra room — often a full size up — and leather slides stretching only around 0.3 cm in width.

What sizes does the listing cover?⌄

The listing gives EU 35–45 overall, with men's 39–45 listed and 38 and 46 noted as custom orders.

Is there independent buyer evidence for this exact pair?⌄

The available claims are line-level for LV Trainer sneakers and for LV slides generally. None covers this star-strap gray model, so nothing here speaks to this exact pair's fit or finish.

Evidence

Public notes used

sizing · tip · 60% confidence

Louis Vuitton's own LV Trainer product pages state the style runs large and recommend selecting one size down from your usual size. This is line-level guidance for the LV Trainer family (the sneaker), so it should be verified against this slide variant rather than assumed.

sizing · tip · 55% confidence

Buyers on Chinese sneaker forums report LV Trainer models fitting roughly 1-1.5 EU sizes large (for example, a Nike US 10 / EU 45 wearer taking a UK 9 / EU 43.5 in a Trainer), while warning that fit shifts with upper material and last, so try-on is advised. This is line-level buyer evidence for LV Trainer sneakers, not for this slide.

Source
sizing · tip · 45% confidence

A published LV slide/mule sizing guide reports that LV slides follow a narrow European last, that wide-footed or high-instep Asian buyers commonly need about 0.5-1 cm of extra room (often a full size up), and that leather slides only stretch about 0.3 cm in width. General LV slide evidence only; not specific to this star-strap gray model.
