These Ariat boots are great for daily wear and riding. To use them, simply slip your feet in. When you're out and about, they'll keep your feet comfortable all day long thanks to the shock - absorbing insole and supportive technology. As for maintenance, clean them regularly with a soft brush or cloth to remove dirt. You can also apply leather conditioner to keep the leather soft and prevent it from drying out. Don't expose them to extreme heat or moisture for long periods. When not in use, store them in a cool, dry place. You can remove the insole for cleaning if needed, but make sure it's completely dry before putting it back in the boots.
