To wear these INFINITY - 997 black patent platform sandals, just slip your feet in and fasten the double criss - cross ankle straps. Make sure they're not too tight or too loose for a comfortable fit. When walking, take it slow at first as the high heel and platform may take some getting used to. For maintenance, use a soft cloth to wipe off any dirt or dust after each wear. Keep them in a cool, dry place, and avoid getting them wet as it may damage the patent finish. If there are any scuffs, you can use a leather cleaner specifically designed for patent leather. Also, when storing, stuff the shoes with tissue paper to help them keep their shape.
