FAQs

What material are the Valentino Garavani Open Trainers made of?

The trainers are made from 100% calf leather for the upper and lining, with a 100% rubber sole.

How should I clean these trainers?

Wipe them clean with a soft, damp cloth. For deeper care, use a leather cleaner and conditioner, and avoid soaking the shoes.

What is the heel height of these trainers?

The heel height is 2.5 centimeters, and the sole height is 2.0 centimeters.

Are these trainers suitable for running or sports?

No, these trainers are designed for casual wear and elevated everyday looks, not for athletic performance.

Do the trainers come in other colors?

While this guide focuses on the white variant, Valentino Garavani Open Trainers are available in various colorways and material combinations.

How do I ensure a good fit?

The trainers feature a lace-up closure for adjustability. It is recommended to try them on or consult a size guide for the best fit, as they are designed with a standard fit for adult sizes.

Can I wear these in wet weather?

It is not recommended to wear these leather trainers in heavy rain or wet conditions, as moisture can damage the leather. They are best suited for dry weather.

Troubleshooting

Leather appears dry or dull

Apply a suitable leather conditioner with a soft cloth to restore moisture and sheen. Ensure you use a product appropriate for calf leather.

Laces fraying or worn

Replace the laces with new ones. Similar style or color laces can be purchased from accessory stores or the brand directly.

Slight creasing on the upper

This is a natural characteristic of leather. Proper storage and the use of shoe trees can help minimize deep creasing over time.

Sole feels slippery on certain surfaces

Ensure the sole is clean and free of debris. For increased grip, consider a professional sole treatment or an anti-slip spray designed for footwear.

Care Instructions:

  1. Wiping Clean: Use a soft, slightly damp cloth to gently wipe away surface dirt and dust.
  2. Leather Cleaner/Conditioner: For deeper cleaning or to maintain suppleness, use a dedicated leather cleaner and conditioner specifically designed for calfskin. Apply sparingly with a soft cloth, following the product's instructions.
  3. Avoid Soaking: Never immerse the trainers in water or expose them to excessive moisture, as this can damage the leather.
  4. Drying: If the trainers become wet, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources. Stuffing with paper can help maintain their shape during drying.
  5. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in their original box or a dust bag to protect them from dust and scratches.
