To wear these sandals, just slip your feet in and tie the back - tie ankle cuff to secure them. Make sure the tie is not too tight to ensure comfort. When walking, be careful as the high heels and platform may affect your balance. To maintain these sandals, avoid wearing them in wet conditions. Use a soft cloth to wipe off any dirt or dust after each use. Store them in a cool, dry place to keep the patent leather looking shiny.
