Using these boots is easy. Just lace them up through the eyelets and use the hook & loop strap on the vamp for a snug fit. The shoe lace stopper helps keep your laces in place. When it comes to sizing, remember that they're in US sizing. If you're from Australia, follow the conversion rule to get the right size. For maintenance, use a soft cloth to wipe off any dirt or dust. Since they're made of vegan leather, avoid exposing them to excessive moisture or heat. And don't forget, this is a pre - order item. Be patient while we wait for the boots to arrive from Demonia in the USA. If there's any issue with the size availability, we'll be in touch with you as soon as possible.
