FAQs

What size should I order?

The product details mention this specific item corresponds to an IT 38 size, which is a UK 6.5. It is recommended to consult a sizing chart or try them on if possible, as Italian sizing can vary.

How do I clean the bronze-toned Cassandre signature?

The metal Cassandre signature can typically be wiped gently with a dry, soft cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or polishes, which could damage the finish.

Are these suitable for everyday wear?

Yes, the flat sole and quality leather lining make them comfortable for everyday wear, provided the weather is dry. However, their luxury construction means they are best protected from harsh elements.

What is the material of the sole?

The sole of the Saint Laurent Babylone Slides is made of leather.

Can I wear these in wet weather?

It is not recommended to wear suede footwear in wet weather, as it can cause permanent damage, staining, and misshaping of the material.

How should I store my Babylone Slides?

Store your slides in a cool, dry place, preferably in their original dust bag or a soft cloth to protect the suede and hardware from dust and scratches.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears dirty or stained

Use a dedicated suede brush to gently lift dirt. For tougher stains, apply a small amount of specialized suede cleaner with a clean cloth, working from the outside of the stain inwards. Allow to air dry completely before brushing again.

Slides feel slightly stiff on first wear

This is common with new leather and suede. Wear them around the house for short periods to allow them to mold to your feet. The leather lining and insole will soften with use.

Water spots or marks on the suede

Allow the shoes to dry naturally away from direct heat. Once dry, gently brush the suede to restore its texture. For persistent marks, a suede cleaner may be necessary.
