FAQs

Are these sneakers true to size?

The Valentino Garavani Open Low Shoes generally fit true to standard adult sizing, but we recommend consulting the size guide for the specific UK 12.5 fit to ensure comfort.

Can I wear these in the rain?

It is not recommended to wear these in heavy rain, as prolonged exposure to water can damage the leather and affect the color consistency of the white/beige finish.

What is the best way to clean the white leather?

Use a soft, damp cloth and a mild leather-safe soap. Always test a small, inconspicuous area first.

Where are these shoes made?

These shoes are expertly crafted in Italy.

Do they provide arch support?

The shoes offer standard support typical of luxury low-top sneakers; however, they are not designed as specialized athletic or orthopedic footwear.

Troubleshooting

Visible scuffs on the leather surface

Use a specialized leather cleaner or a soft eraser designed for light-colored leather to gently buff away marks.

Creasing at the toe box

Insert shoe trees immediately after taking the shoes off to help the leather return to its natural shape.

Staining on the white rubber sole

Use a magic eraser or mild soap solution on a cloth to spot-clean the rubber edges, taking care to keep the liquid away from the leather upper.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

These shoes are ready to wear straight out of the box. Because the leather is sensitive to staining, it is recommended to apply a high-quality leather protector spray before the first use. To ensure long-term longevity:

  1. Cleaning: Wipe the leather with a soft, slightly damp cloth to remove surface dirt. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners that may damage the finish.
  2. Storage: Store the shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Use shoe trees to maintain the shape of the leather.
  3. Stud Care: Gently clean the rear rubber studs with a soft-bristle brush to prevent debris buildup.
  4. Compatibility: These shoes match well with tailored trousers, denim, and shorts, making them a staple piece for a curated wardrobe.
