Using these Ariat boots is super easy. Just slip them on like you would with any other boots. They're great for activities like getting in and out of your truck or riding a horse. When it comes to maintenance, use a soft brush to clean off dirt and dust regularly. Every few months, apply a leather conditioner to keep the leather soft and prevent it from cracking. Avoid wearing them in extremely wet conditions for long periods. If they do get wet, let them dry naturally away from direct heat. Also, make sure to replace the removable insole when it starts to lose its cushioning for continued comfort.
