These women's boots are easy to use. Just unzip the inside zipper to put them on or take them off. If you have wider feet, simply open up the laces for a more comfortable fit. When it comes to maintenance, use a soft brush to clean the leather and suede regularly. Avoid getting them wet in heavy rain or snow. If they do get wet, let them dry naturally away from direct heat. Also, store them in a cool, dry place when not in use.
