FAQs
What is the heel height of these loafers?
The loafers feature a 20 mm heel, designed for a balance between elegance and comfort.
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, they follow standard UK adult sizing conventions. We recommend ordering your usual dress shoe size.
Can I wear these in the rain?
We advise against wearing them in heavy rain, as prolonged exposure to moisture can damage the leather upper and the leather sole.
How do I care for the suede insert?
Use a specialized suede brush to gently remove dust and maintain the nap of the suede material.
Where are these shoes manufactured?
These Valentino Garavani loafers are proudly crafted in Italy.
Can the leather sole be repaired?
Yes, as with most high-quality leather footwear, a professional cobbler can resole the shoes or add protectors once the original sole wears down.
Troubleshooting
The leather feels stiff initially.
This is normal for premium leather. Wear them for short durations indoors with thick socks to gently soften the material over several days.
The sole feels slippery on certain surfaces.
New leather soles can be slick. If necessary, have a cobbler add a thin rubber sole protector, which increases grip and extends the life of the leather sole.
Scuffs appearing on the brass logo.
Use only a clean, dry microfiber cloth to buff the logo. Avoid chemical cleaners which can strip the antique-effect finish.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Valentino Garavani shoes remain in pristine condition, proper care is essential.
- Storage: Always use shoe trees when not wearing the shoes to maintain their shape and absorb moisture.
- Cleaning: Use a soft, dry cloth to remove dust from the leather. For the suede insert, use a dedicated suede brush to lift any trapped debris.
- Moisturizing: Occasionally apply a high-quality leather conditioner to prevent the leather from cracking, avoiding the logo hardware.
- Weathering: Avoid wearing in heavy rain, as prolonged moisture exposure can damage the leather finish and the leather sole.
- Compatibility: These shoes run in standard adult UK sizing; they are most compatible with slim-cut suit trousers or chinos that end just above the ankle to showcase the loafer silhouette.
