To wear these Pleaser sandals, just slip your feet in and fasten the ankle strap. They're true to size, so no need to worry about getting the wrong fit. When walking, take it a bit slow at first because of the 6 - inch heel. For maintenance, use a soft cloth to wipe off dirt regularly. Keep them in a cool, dry place when not in use. Avoid wearing them in very wet conditions to prevent damage to the red patent material. If there are any scuffs, you can use a shoe polish suitable for patent leather to make them look new again.
