FAQs

What material are the Saint Laurent Babylone Slides made of?

These slides are made from 100% calf leather, with a suede exterior and leather lining and insole.

How should I clean the suede upper?

Use a specialized suede brush for regular cleaning. For stains, it is best to seek professional cleaning services for suede.

Are these slides suitable for extended walking?

While comfortable for casual wear, they are flat slides and may not provide sufficient support for very long distances or strenuous activities. They are best suited for moderate walking.

What does the 'Cassandre' detail refer to?

The Cassandre is the iconic interlocking YSL logo of Saint Laurent, featured here as a bronze-toned metal embellishment on the upper.

Can I wear these slides in wet weather?

It is strongly advised against wearing suede in wet conditions, as it can lead to staining and damage. Always protect them from moisture.

What size is an IT 38 in UK sizing?

An IT 38 typically corresponds to a UK size 5. The specific product listed is a UK 3.5 (IT 36).

Where are these slides manufactured?

These Saint Laurent Babylone Slides are made in Italy.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears dull or dirty

Use a suede brush to gently lift the nap and remove surface dirt. For stubborn stains, consider a professional cleaning service specializing in luxury footwear.

Slides feel slightly stiff initially

Wear the slides around the house for short periods to allow the leather to mold to your foot. The natural leather lining and insole will soften with wear.

Bronze Cassandre logo loses shine

Gently polish the metal logo with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or polishes, as they can damage the finish.

Suede color seems uneven after minor exposure to moisture

Allow the slides to dry completely away from heat. Once dry, use a suede brush to restore the texture. If the color change is significant, professional recoloring may be an option.

  • Protection: Apply a suede protector spray to help guard against water and stains. Reapply periodically.
