Using these Ariat boots is straightforward. Just slip them on like any other boots and you're ready for a day on the turf or in the saddle. When it comes to maintenance, use a soft brush to remove dirt after each use. Every few weeks, apply a leather conditioner to keep the full - grain leather in good condition. Avoid exposing them to extreme heat or chemicals as this can damage the leather and the outsole. If the boots get wet, let them dry naturally away from direct heat sources. With proper care, these boots will serve you well for a long time.
