These Ariat men's Western boots are super versatile. You can wear them for horse - riding, working on the farm, or just for a casual day out. When putting them on, start by loosening the laces a bit if there are any, and then slide your feet in gently. To keep them in good shape, avoid wearing them in extremely muddy or wet conditions for long periods. After use, wipe them down with a soft, dry cloth to remove dirt. If they get wet, let them dry naturally away from direct heat. Every few months, apply a good quality leather conditioner to keep the leather soft and prevent it from cracking.
