To use these Eric Michael Scarlett women's black suede sandals, simply slip your feet in and adjust the straps to your comfort. They're perfect for evening events like parties or dinners. When it comes to maintenance, avoid wearing them in wet weather as suede can be easily damaged by water. If they get dirty, use a soft suede brush to gently remove the dust. Store them in a cool, dry place, and you can keep them looking great for a long time.
