How to use: Put on these boots like you would any other. Lace them up tightly to get the right fit and ankle support. They're great for winter hikes on trails. Just make sure your feet are dry before putting them on. Things to note: Avoid wearing these boots in extremely hot and dry conditions as the insulation might make your feet too hot. Also, don't use them for activities they're not designed for, like rock climbing. Maintenance advice: After each use, clean off any dirt or debris. Let them air - dry naturally. If they get wet, stuff them with newspaper to help absorb the moisture. Periodically, check the laces and sole for any signs of wear and tear. If the footbed gets dirty, remove it and wash it gently.
