FAQs
Are these pumps true to size?
Most users find the Valentino Rockstud fit to be standard, but because they feature a pointed toe, those with wider feet may prefer to size up by half a size.
Can I wear these for long periods?
While high-quality, the 100 mm stiletto is designed for style and elegance. They are best suited for events where you are not standing or walking for extended durations.
How do I protect the leather?
Use a high-quality leather conditioner occasionally, but avoid putting oils or waxes on the metallic studs.
What is the heel height exactly?
These pumps feature a 100 mm (approx. 4 inches) stiletto heel.
Is the ankle strap removable?
The ankle strap is a permanent feature of the design and is intended to provide necessary support for the 100 mm heel.
Are the studs prone to falling off?
The studs are secured during the Italian manufacturing process. With normal wear and proper storage, they remain firmly in place.
Troubleshooting
Heel tip wearing down too quickly
Visit a professional cobbler to replace the heel taps with high-durability rubber tips.
Tight fit around the toe box
Utilize a leather stretching spray or wear the shoes with thick socks for short periods at home to gently expand the material.
Ankle strap feels loose
Ensure the buckle is set to the tightest comfortable notch; if it remains loose, a cobbler can add an extra hole to the leather strap.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Rockstud pumps maintain their condition, always store them in a dust bag when not in use. Given their leather construction, avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain or direct moisture to prevent permanent water staining. For maintenance, wipe the leather with a soft, dry cloth. If the studs require cleaning, use a non-abrasive polishing cloth to remove fingerprints or dust. Due to the high heel and delicate nature of the finish, it is recommended to have a professional cobbler apply a rubber sole protector if you plan on wearing these frequently on rough outdoor surfaces.
