FAQs

What material are the Valentino Garavani 'Open' Sneakers made of?

These sneakers are primarily crafted from premium leather for the upper, with a rubber sole.

How do I determine my correct size?

Refer to the brand's sizing chart, which usually correlates UK sizes with European or US equivalents. Ensure you measure your foot accurately.

Are these sneakers suitable for running or sports?

No, the 'Open' sneakers are designed as fashion footwear for casual and smart-casual wear. They are not intended for athletic performance.

How should I clean the white leather?

Use a soft, dry cloth for dusting. For marks, use a slightly damp cloth or a specialized white leather cleaner. Avoid excessive water.

What does the 'Open' series signify?

The 'Open' series is characterized by its distinctive design, often featuring a contrasting band across the shoe and a streamlined silhouette.

Can the contrasting band be customized?

Return policies vary by retailer. Please check the specific terms and conditions of the store where the purchase was made regarding returns and exchanges for incorrect fit.

Troubleshooting

Laces coming undone frequently

Ensure laces are tied securely with a double knot if necessary. Consider replacing laces if they are worn or slippery.

Leather creasing or scuffing

Minor creasing is natural with leather. For scuffs, use a leather conditioner or cleaner specific to white leather. Regular polishing can help maintain appearance.

Squeaking sound from soles

This can sometimes occur with new rubber soles. Try dusting the sole with talcum powder or ensuring no moisture is trapped.

Discoloration of the colored band

Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or harsh chemicals. Clean gently with a damp cloth suitable for the band's material.
