FAQs
What is the heel height of these sandals?
The heel height for this model is 90 mm.
Are these sandals true to size?
The Valentino Garavani Rockstud line generally fits true to standard European sizing, though it is recommended to consult a size guide for specific UK to EU conversions.
How do I protect the platinum-finish studs?
Avoid using metal cleaners or abrasive cloths on the studs. A soft microfiber cloth is sufficient for removing fingerprints or dust.
Can these be worn in rainy weather?
No, it is advised to avoid wearing leather-soled shoes in wet conditions as moisture can damage both the leather and the metallic components.
Is the leather sensitive to staining?
The light beige leather can be susceptible to color transfer or stains, so it is best to avoid contact with dark denim or substances that may bleed into the material.
How should I store them when not in use?
Store them inside the provided individual dust bags to prevent the studs from scratching the leather of the other shoe.
Troubleshooting
Buckle feels stiff or difficult to close
Apply a tiny amount of leather conditioner to the area where the strap passes through the buckle to soften the material.
Heel tip wearing down
Take the sandals to a professional cobbler to have the heel taps replaced before the inner metal dowel is exposed.
Scuffs on the leather surface
Use a high-quality leather cream that matches the beige tone to gently buff out minor surface scuffs.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Valentino Garavani sandals remain in peak condition, follow these guidelines. Setup involves adjusting the ankle strap to your personal preference during the first wear; once the optimal fit is found, leave the buckle at that setting to preserve the leather holes. For care, keep the leather clean by wiping it with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid exposure to water, harsh chemicals, or abrasive surfaces that could scratch the platinum-finish studs. Store the sandals in their provided dust bag in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the leather from drying out or discoloring.
