To wear these boots, just unzip the inner side zipper, slide your foot in, and zip it up. Lace up the back for a snug fit. They fit true to size, so you don't have to worry about sizing issues. When it comes to maintenance, use a soft cloth to wipe off dirt. Keep them in a cool, dry place when not in use. Avoid wearing them in very wet conditions as the black patent material might be affected.
