To use these boots, first unzip the side zipper. Then, loosen the laces if needed and slip your feet in. Adjust the laces to your desired tightness and zip up the side zipper. When walking, be careful as the high heel and platform may take some getting used to. To maintain them, use a soft cloth to wipe off dirt regularly. Keep them away from sharp objects to avoid scratching the faux leather. Store them in a cool, dry place when not in use.
