The Fanny Slide

Avantelle Authentication Team · Updated July 2026

The Fanny Slide is a backless slide built around a soft twisted band across the vamp. At 85mm it is an easy mule to step into, all about the drape of that crossed band.

Backless and easy to step into, a mule like this lives on how the vamp holds the foot. It fits true to size for most people. Because we check every pair by hand, a clean pre-owned example is a confident way into the model.

Wearing it

It is the vamp and the footbed that mark before anything else on a backless shoe, so we start there.

Does the Fanny Slide run true to size?

The Fanny Slide fits true to size for most people. As a backless mule the fit is all in the vamp: your toes should sit just inside the front with the band holding across the foot, and a little heel overhang at the back is normal. If you are between sizes, we would size down rather than up.

Authentication

How do you spot a fake Fanny Slide?

We authenticate every pair in house. These are the details our team checks first on any Fanny Slide that comes through us. For the full method, read our guide to authenticating Louboutins.

01

The red sole

Louboutin's red is a specific shade (Pantone 18-1663, Rouge Louboutin). On a worn pair it fades and scuffs at the tread first. A sole that reads orange or pinkish, or paint sitting on top of the leather rather than in it, is a warning sign.

02

The sole stamp

The red sole is engraved with Christian Louboutin and the size, set across the arch. On a genuine pair the lettering is crisp, evenly pressed and correctly placed. Shallow, uneven or badly spaced engraving, or a stamp that looks printed on rather than pressed in, is a common tell on a fake.

03

The insole stamp

Christian Louboutin and Made in Italy are stamped cleanly into the insole with the size. The lettering is even and precisely spaced. Smudged, shallow, or misaligned stamping is one of the most common tells on a fake.

04

The vamp

A backless mule is held by the vamp across the foot, so that is where the make shows. The band or straps should be evenly cut and cleanly stitched where they meet the sole, with the patent or leather sitting smooth and taut over the last. A vamp that puckers, or stitching that wanders where it joins the sole, is a warning sign.

05

Construction

Stitching is fine and even, the footbed neatly finished, and the straps sit flush to the sole. Loose threads, glue seepage at the footbed, or straps that lift away all point away from an authentic pair.

06

Box and dust bag

Original packaging is a supporting signal, never proof on its own. We authenticate on the shoe itself, and a genuine box and dust bag with the correct labelling add confidence.

Questions

Fanny Slide, answered

Does the Fanny Slide run true to size?

Broadly yes. The Fanny Slide fits true to size for most people; size up half a size if you are between sizes or wider-footed.

How high is the Fanny Slide?

85mm, about 3.3 inches.

Is the Fanny Slide comfortable?

As a backless mule it slips on and the vamp holds the foot, with no back or toe box to break in; on the 85mm heel it is an evening shoe, easy for its height.

What is the difference between the Fanny Slide and the Mulazee Cross?

The main difference is height: the Fanny Slide is 85mm and the Mulazee Cross is 80mm. Both are red-soled Louboutins, so it comes down to the silhouette and how much heel you want.

Can you authenticate a pre-owned Fanny Slide?

Yes. We authenticate every pair in house, and we also offer a free check on any Louboutins you already own. Send us a few photos and our team will take a look.

How much is a pre-owned Fanny Slide?

It retails around £770 new at Christian Louboutin. Pre-owned pairs are typically well below that; we source authenticated pairs to your budget.
