FAQs

Are these sandals true to size?

Yes, they are generally designed to fit standard EU sizing, but those between sizes may prefer to consult a size chart or try them on to ensure a comfortable fit for the ankle strap.

Can the straps be adjusted?

Yes, the sandals feature adjustable buckle fastenings, allowing you to tighten or loosen the fit around your ankle for maximum comfort.

How do I maintain the leather?

Keep the leather hydrated with a high-quality leather cream and store them away from direct heat or sunlight to prevent drying and cracking.

What is the heel height?

The heel is approximately 9cm, or 3.5 inches.

Are these suitable for all-day wear?

While the design is comfortable for a high heel, they are intended primarily for events and evenings. If you are new to 9cm heels, you may want to limit the duration of wear until your feet adjust.

How do I clean the Rockstud hardware?

Use a soft microfiber cloth for regular dusting. Avoid using metal polishes or harsh chemicals as they may affect the finish of the studs.

Troubleshooting

Buckle feels too tight or stiff

Apply a tiny amount of leather conditioner to the strap to soften the fibers and adjust the buckle to the next notch for immediate relief.

Studs appearing dull

Gently buff the studs with a clean, dry microfiber cloth to restore their original silver-tone shine.

Slipping inside the heel

Ensure the ankle strap is buckled snugly and consider adding a thin, non-slip gel insole pad to improve grip.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Proper care for your Valentino Garavani Rockstuds is essential to maintaining their luster. To ensure longevity:

  1. Storage: Store the sandals in their provided dust bag when not in use to protect the leather from dust and light exposure.
  2. Cleaning: Use a soft, dry cloth to remove surface debris. Avoid harsh chemical cleaners, as these can damage the leather finish and tarnish the silver-tone studs.
  3. Conditioning: Use a leather conditioner specifically formulated for fine luxury goods to keep the material supple.
  4. Hardware: If the studs lose their shine, a gentle wipe with a microfiber cloth is sufficient; avoid abrasive polishes.
  5. Compatibility: These are true-to-size formal shoes; ensure you are wearing appropriate hosiery or foot care products if you are new to high-end strapped heels to prevent friction.
