To use these sandals, simply put them on like you would any other pair of shoes. Make sure to adjust the dual buckles for a comfortable fit. When walking, be careful as the high heel and platform can affect your balance. To maintain them, keep them away from water and sharp objects. You can use a soft cloth to wipe off any dust or dirt. If there are any rhinestones that come loose, you can use a small amount of glue to reattach them.
