For maintenance, clean the boots regularly with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. After cleaning, let them air - dry away from direct heat. Avoid using harsh chemicals as they may damage the leather. Store them in a cool, dry place when not in use. This way, your boots will serve you well for a long time.
