Remove mud and sweat from the boot and let the leather dry at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources. Check that the wedge of the boot tree is pulled out and that the two vertical parts are close together. Insert the two parts into the boot with the toe facing forwards. Thanks to the joint, the toe follows the curve of the foot and goes down without forcing. Push it all the way in. Check that the boot tree reaches the heel and that the shaft is well aligned. Insert the wedge. Hold it by the handle and slide it between the two parts. As it goes down, it moves them apart and stretches the leather. Adjust the tension. The leather should be taut but not strained. If you feel too much resistance, pull the wedge back a little. Leave it to rest. Keep the boot tree in the boot until the next use. To remove it, pull out the wedge by the handle. The two parts come together and you can slide them out without tugging. Then slide out the toe as well, calmly. When not in use, store in a cotton bag. Also use the boot tree when cleaning, nourishing or dyeing riding boots for a better result.
