Preparation

• 1). Sprinkle baby powder into the sole of the boot to ensure it slides on smoothly.
  
  
• 2). Cuff your pants and tuck them into your socks evenly. This will help avoid uncomfortable bulges as you slip the boot on.
  
  
• 3). Hold the top of the boot in the back above the heel, the place toes into the tip of the shoe and pull on. When putting the heel into position, be careful not to crush the heel of the shoe.
  
  

Lacing

• 1). Stand up and put your foot on a chair. The foot should be in the same position as it would be when you are standing, so this will help create a good lacing angle.
  
  
• 2). Press the bottom flap of the boots -- the side without the buttons -- so that it is flat against the leg. Let the top flap hang loose, as it will come into place naturally.
  
  
• 3). Pull the lace through the first loop and feel the shoe start to tighten. Bring the lace up above the first button and wrap it around the outside, bringing it back up at the end to the second loop.
  
  
• 4). Pull lace through second loop and continue lacing in the above manner.
  
  
• 5). Wrap lace around top button twice when you have laced the whole boot. Tuck the excess lace into the top stitch so it hangs in a loop.
