To wear these ankle boots, simply unzip the inside zipper, slip your foot in, and then lace up the back if you want a snug fit. These boots are true to size, so pick your regular shoe size. When you're out and about, the 5 - inch heel will give you a stylish lift. As for maintenance, use a soft cloth to wipe off dirt regularly. Avoid getting them wet in heavy rain as the faux leather may be damaged. Store them in a cool, dry place when not in use.
