What you’ll love about these 1970s Yves Saint Laurent slingback sandals is that unexpected olive green against the bold red insole — pure Studio 54 tension. The crisscross patent straps, sculpted 3.25" heel, and vibrant YSL Paris stamp feel unmistakably late-70s European glamour — confident, sultry, and sophisticated.

Condition:
Excellent near-new uppers. Leather soles barely worn. Minor heel discoloration as shown. Original YSL “Chaussures Paris” box included with tissue. Light residual storage scent possible.

Fit Snapshot:
