FAQs

What is the heel height of the D'Orsay 100 pumps?

The '100' in the name typically refers to a 100mm heel height, which is approximately 4 inches.

Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?

The D'Orsay style and pointed toe generally lend themselves to a standard or slightly narrow fit. They may not be ideal for very wide feet without professional stretching.

How should I store my Valentino Garavani pumps?

Store them in the original dust bag and shoe box to protect the patent leather from scratches and environmental damage.

Can I wear these pumps in wet weather?

It is not recommended to wear patent leather shoes in heavy rain or wet conditions as moisture can damage the leather and affect the finish. Consider protective sole additions if necessary.

What does 'D'Orsay' refer to in the shoe name?

D'Orsay refers to the shoe's construction where the sides are cut low, revealing the arch of the foot, a style named after Count D'Orsay.

Is the 'Nero' color a true black?

Yes, 'Nero' is the Italian term for black, indicating these pumps are a deep, classic black color.

Troubleshooting

Scuff marks on patent leather

Gently buff the affected area with a soft, dry microfiber cloth. For persistent marks, a specialized patent leather cleaner or a small amount of petroleum jelly applied with a soft cloth can sometimes help, followed by buffing.

Pumps feel tight or uncomfortable

Wear the pumps for short periods initially to allow the leather to mold to your feet. Consider using padded insoles or heel grips for added comfort. If discomfort persists after a break-in period, consult a professional shoe repairer about potential stretching.

Slippery sole

Leather soles can be slippery, especially when new or on smooth surfaces. Consider having a cobbler add a thin rubber sole protector for improved traction and durability.

  • Comfortable leather insole and sole for extended wear.

Cons

  • Pointed toe may require an adjustment period.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These are ready-to-wear shoes. Ensure you have selected the correct size (UK 6.5 in this case) for optimal fit.

Compatibility: These pumps are designed to complement formal attire, evening wear, and sophisticated business outfits. They pair well with dresses, skirts, and tailored trousers.

Care:

  • Cleaning: Wipe the patent leather gently with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth to remove dust and light marks. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
  • Storage: Store the pumps in the provided dust bag and shoe box to protect them from scratches and dust when not in use.
  • Protection: Consider using a patent leather protector spray, testing it on an inconspicuous area first. Be mindful of sharp objects that could scratch the patent finish.
  • Sole Care: Leather soles can be sensitive to moisture. It is advisable to have protective rubber soles applied by a cobbler to prolong their life and provide better grip, especially in wet conditions.
