These Rocky men's logger boots are easy to use. Just put them on like regular boots and you're ready for work. When using, be aware that although they're slip - resistant, still be careful on very slippery surfaces. For maintenance, clean the waterproof full - grain leather regularly with a damp cloth and a mild leather cleaner. Let them dry naturally. Replace the removable insole if it loses its comfort over time. Also, check the outsole for excessive wear and tear and replace the boots when needed.
