The Men’s Saint Laurent Sneakers Sizing Guide
Not sure what size you take in Saint Laurent men’s sneakers? The brand uses European sizing, and you can use the below sizing guide to find your corresponding UK or US shoe size.

How To Care For Your Saint Laurent Sneakers
The best way to clean your sneakers will depend on the material they are made from. Whether your Saint Laurent sneakers are made from leather, suede or canvas, we would recommend allowing your sneakers to air dry before trying to clean them. Attempting to clean them after you have been in the rain or mud, could lead to stains being rubbed into the fabric.
Use a soft bristle brush to remove any excess dirt once dry, and then use a damp cloth or towel to remove any other superficial stains. Use a specialist cleaner to remove tough stains and air dry, and add a new pair of laces for an easy refresh.
We would also advise investing in prolonging the life of your sneakers with shoe care products like a leather conditioner or suede protector spray. An everyday fabric protector spray can be used on canvas sneakers.
- Are Saint Laurent sneakers true to size?
Most Saint Laurent men’s sneakers fit true to size, such as the Andy, Court Classic, SL/06, SL/01 and SL/10. However, there may be certain styles that fit small or large to size.
If there are only full sizes available, we would recommend taking the nearest whole size up if you take a half size for Saint Laurent sneakers.
- Are Saint Laurent sneakers comfortable?
Thanks to their expert Italian construction and hardwearing yet flexible rubber soles, Saint Laurent sneakers are comfortable enough to wear all day. The brand’s sneakers come with leather linings for in-shoe comfort, and the lace fastenings on some styles allow for a customized fit.
- How do I know if my Saint Laurent sneakers are real?
All Saint Laurent sneakers will come with a branded shoe box, dust bags and spare laces. Saint Laurent sneakers are sold by Saint Laurent retail and outlet stores, as well as authorized department stores and retailers on Lyst.
