These boots are perfect for work. To use them, just put them on like you would any regular boots. Make sure to tie the laces properly for a snug fit. When it comes to maintenance, clean them regularly with a soft brush to remove dirt and debris. You can use a leather conditioner on the leather parts to keep them supple and prevent cracking. Avoid exposing the boots to extreme heat or moisture for long periods. Also, check the soles periodically for signs of wear and tear. If you notice any issues, it might be time to replace them.
