Using these boots is a breeze. Just unzip the side zipper, slip your foot in, and then lace up the front as tight or loose as you like for a comfortable fit. When walking, take your time as the high heel and platform may take a bit of getting used to. As for care, keep them away from water and extreme heat. Use a soft brush to remove any dirt or dust. If they get scuffed, a leather or fabric cleaner suitable for white materials can be used. Store them in a cool, dry place, and you can even stuff them with tissue paper to help them keep their shape.
