To wear these boots, simply lace them up or use the front metal zipper for easy on and off. They fit true to size, so no need to worry about sizing issues. When walking, the 5' heel and 3' platform will give you some extra height. For maintenance, clean the faux leather with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid getting them too wet or exposing them to extreme heat. Store them in a cool, dry place when not in use.
