FAQs

Are these sandals suitable for wide feet?

The sandals have a standard fit. Due to the thong design and flexible material, they may accommodate slightly wider feet, but it's recommended to check specific measurements if available or try them on if possible.

Can I wear these sandals in the water?

Yes, the 100% rubber/PVC construction makes them water-resistant and suitable for beach or poolside wear. Ensure they are dried properly afterward.

How do I clean the Rockstuds?

Wipe the Rockstuds gently with a soft, slightly damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scrubbing, which could scratch the finish or dislodge the studs.

What is the heel height of these sandals?

The heel height is a low 5 mm.

Are these sandals true to size?

Generally, Valentino Garavani footwear runs true to size. However, personal fit can vary. It's advisable to consult size charts or reviews if available for specific fit guidance.

What is the primary material used for these sandals?

The sandals are primarily made from 100% PVC or rubber, providing a glossy finish and flexibility.

How should I store these sandals when not in use?

Store them in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Using the original dust bag can help protect them from dust and scratches.

Troubleshooting

Studs appear loose or discolored

Gently wipe with a soft, damp cloth. For discoloration on platinum-finish studs, a specialized metal cleaner might be cautiously used, but test on an inconspicuous area first. If studs are genuinely loose, professional repair may be needed.

Sandal feels stiff initially

Wear them around the house for short periods to allow the PVC/rubber to flex and conform to your foot shape. Gentle flexing by hand can also help.

Sole marking on surfaces

Ensure the sole is completely clean and dry before walking on sensitive surfaces. Residue from manufacturing or wear could potentially transfer. Clean with a damp cloth.
