What material are the Valentino Garavani One Stud XL Trainers made from?
These trainers are crafted from a combination of two-tone nappa leather, perforated leather, canvas, and smooth calfskin panels.

Troubleshooting
Leather creasing
Some creasing is natural with leather. To minimize, ensure proper fit and avoid over-stuffing the shoes when storing.
Stains on the leather
Act quickly. Gently blot the stain with a clean, dry cloth. For persistent stains, use a specialized leather cleaner and test on an inconspicuous area first.
Sole becoming detached
Minor detachments can sometimes be repaired by a professional cobbler. For significant issues, contact the retailer or manufacturer.
Discoloration from rubbing
Avoid wearing with dark, uncured denim or other materials that may transfer color. Use a leather protector to create a barrier.
