Troubleshooting
Stiff leather upon first wear
Wear the sandals around the house for short periods to allow the leather to soften and mold to your foot. Consider using a leather conditioner sparingly if needed, following product instructions.
Ankle strap feels too loose or tight
Adjust the buckle on the ankle strap to find the most comfortable and secure fit. Ensure the strap is not over-tightened, which could cause discomfort.
Scuffs or minor marks on the leather
For light scuffs, try buffing gently with a soft cloth. For more noticeable marks, consult a professional leather repair service or use a color-matched leather cream if available.
Rockstuds become loose
Gently try to tighten any loose studs by hand. If they are significantly loose or have fallen off, contact Valentino customer service or a cobbler specializing in luxury goods for repair.
