Using these Arcopedico women's lace - up oxfords is a breeze. Just use the pull loop at the back to easily put them on and take them off, then lace them up to your desired tightness. When it comes to maintenance, you can simply toss them in the washing machine for a quick clean. However, remember that the product measurements are based on size EU 36 (US Women's 5.5 - 6), width M, and they may vary by size. Also, the weight mentioned is for a single shoe, not a pair. Enjoy the all - day comfort and style these shoes bring!
