Using these Minnetonka slipper boots is a breeze. Just slip your feet in, adjust the rawhide lace if needed, and you're ready to go. For indoor use, they'll keep your feet warm and cozy. When you head outdoors, the heavily treaded sole will give you good traction. As for maintenance, you can use a soft brush to gently clean the suede and wool parts. Let them air - dry naturally if they get wet. Avoid machine - washing or using harsh chemicals. Store them in a cool, dry place when not in use. And remember, the fabric patterns may look a bit different from the picture, but that just adds to their unique charm.
