To use these ankle boots, simply unzip the side zipper and slide your foot in. They are true to size, so you can expect a comfortable fit right out of the box. When walking, the platform will give you some extra height while the heel provides stability. To keep them in good condition, avoid wearing them in wet weather as the patent material may be damaged. Use a soft cloth to wipe them clean after each use. Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the color from fading.
