2. Lift your heel, loosen the Velcro on the side, pull it upward from the outside through the sole of the foot, and fix it above the ankle bone

3. Similarly, loosen the magic tape on the other side, pass it through the sole of the foot, tighten it upwards, and fix it above the inner ankle bone

4. Finally, press the magic belt with the LOGO horizontally above the ankle bone and fix the two magic belts on the left and right
