To use these ankle boots, simply unzip the side zipper and slip your feet in. They're designed to fit true to size, so you don't have to worry about sizing issues. When you're walking, the 7 - inch heel will give you a great lift, but be careful as it's a bit high. For maintenance, use a soft cloth to wipe off any dirt or dust regularly. Store them in a cool, dry place when not in use. Avoid getting them wet as it might damage the material.
