To use these boots, simply put them on like you would any other pair of shoes. They're great for exploring the city in both rain and shine. When it comes to maintenance, clean the boots regularly with a soft brush and a mild leather cleaner. Let them air dry naturally. Avoid exposing them to extreme heat. Also, make sure to replace the removable footbed when it starts to lose its cushioning for continued comfort. Keep in mind that while the boots are waterproof, it's best not to submerge them in water for long periods. And to keep the odor control working well, allow the boots to air out after each use.
