Using these sandals is a breeze. Just slip your feet in and adjust the hook and loop closure to your comfort. You can wear them for a casual day out or a semi - formal event. When it comes to maintenance, use a soft cloth to wipe off any dirt or dust. Avoid getting them wet as much as possible, but if they do get damp, let them dry naturally away from direct heat. As for storage, keep them in a cool, dry place. And remember, because they are made with natural tanned leather and hand - painted, some color variations are normal and add to their unique charm.
