To put on these ankle boots, first unzip the side zipper. Then, lace up the front according to your comfort level. When taking them off, simply unlace and unzip. These boots are true to size, so you don't have to worry about sizing issues. For maintenance, use a soft brush to clean the faux suede regularly. Avoid getting them wet as much as possible, and if they do get wet, let them air dry naturally. Store them in a cool, dry place when not in use.
