FAQs

What material are the Saint Laurent Babylone Slides made of?

The slides feature a gathered suede upper, leather lining, leather insole, and a leather sole. The decorative Cassandre signature is made of bronze-toned metal.

Are these slides suitable for wide feet?

The gathered upper offers some flexibility, but the almond peep-toe shape may not accommodate very wide feet comfortably. It's recommended to try them on if possible.

Can I wear these slides in wet weather?

It is strongly advised not to wear these slides in wet conditions, as the suede material is sensitive to water and can be easily damaged or stained. Excessive moisture can affect the texture and color of the suede.

How should I clean the suede?

Use a specialized suede brush to clean dirt and maintain the nap. For stains, it's best to consult a professional leather and suede cleaning service to avoid damaging the material.

What is the main benefit of the leather insole?

The leather insole provides a smooth, breathable surface that enhances comfort and helps to wick away moisture, contributing to a better foot climate.

Are these slides true to size?

Generally, Saint Laurent footwear runs true to size. However, individual fit can vary. Referring to size guides and trying them on is recommended for the best fit.

What does 'Cassandre' refer to on the slides?

The Cassandre is the iconic interlocking YSL logo, a signature motif of the Saint Laurent brand, featured here as a decorative metal piece.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears flat or matted.

Gently brush the suede with a suede brush to lift the nap and restore its texture.

Minor scuffs on leather sole.

Light scuffs can often be buffed out with a soft cloth or a leather conditioner. For deeper marks, professional repair may be needed.

Discomfort due to rubbing.

Ensure correct sizing. If the issue persists, consider wearing them for shorter periods initially to allow them to break in. Thick socks worn around the house can help stretch them slightly.

Suede becomes wet.

Gently blot excess water with a clean, dry cloth. Allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat. Once dry, brush to restore the nap. For significant wetness, professional cleaning is recommended.
