FAQs
Are these pumps true to size?
The Valentino Garavani VLogo pumps generally follow standard EU/UK sizing conventions, though leather may stretch slightly after break-in.
Can I wear these in the rain?
It is not recommended, as exposure to water can damage the premium leather and tarnish the antique-effect brass finish.
How high is the heel?
The block heel is 60mm in height, providing a stable and comfortable lift.
What is the best way to store these shoes?
Store them in a cool, dry place inside their original dust bag to prevent dust accumulation and maintain the leather's moisture balance.
Is the VLogo hardware prone to scratching?
The antique-effect finish is durable, but you should avoid contact with abrasive surfaces to maintain the integrity of the brass detail.
Can the sole be protected?
Many owners choose to have a thin rubber sole protector added by a professional cobbler to increase traction and protect the primary leather sole.
Troubleshooting
Buckle strap feels loose or slips off
Adjust the buckle to a tighter hole setting and ensure the leather tongue is properly aligned to maintain tension.
Minor scuffs on the leather surface
Use a neutral-coloured leather cream or conditioner to gently buff out minor abrasions, always testing on a small, inconspicuous area first.
Squeaking sound when walking
Ensure the bottom of the heel and the sole are free from debris; if the sound persists, consult a professional cobbler to check the heel cap integrity.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Valentino Garavani pumps maintain their quality, store them in the provided dust bag when not in use. Since they are crafted from fine leather, avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or intense moisture, which can cause cracking or discolouration. To clean the leather, use a soft, dry cloth; for more stubborn marks, use a leather-specific conditioner applied sparingly. The antique-effect brass VLogo should be wiped clean with a dry, non-abrasive cloth to maintain its finish. Ensure the buckle is adjusted to a comfortable tightness to avoid excess strain on the leather strap during regular use.
