To put on these boots, simply unzip the full - length inside zipper and slide your foot in. They fit true to size, so you don't have to worry about sizing issues. When walking, the 10 - inch heel and 6 1/4 - inch platform will give you added height. Be careful on slippery surfaces as the high heels can make you a bit unstable. To maintain these boots, wipe them clean with a soft cloth after each use. Store them in a cool, dry place when not in use to keep the black patent finish looking great.
