To use these shoes, simply slip your feet in and fasten the gold tone buckle. They're great for both casual and semi - formal occasions. When it comes to maintenance, use a soft, dry cloth to wipe off any dirt or dust. Avoid getting them wet as much as possible, and store them in a cool, dry place. If there are any stubborn stains, you can use a mild leather cleaner specifically for vegan leather. Also, be careful not to over - tighten the buckle to prevent damage to the leather.
