Choose a pair that fits snugly at the instep and heel
Wear boot socks that cover the shaft and reduce rubbing
Pull the boots on using the pull tabs or boot hooks
Tuck in slim jeans for a classic look
Wear straight-leg or boot-cut pants over the shaft for a cleaner silhouette
Pair with dresses or skirts for a western or casual style
Match the boot color and finish to the outfit
Keep the hem of pants long enough to skim the boot without bunching
Break them in gradually before wearing them all day
Clean and condition the leather regularly
Use heel grips or insoles if needed for comfort
Store them upright with boot shapers or rolled paper to keep the shaft straight
