Pinch type clamps:
These have notches cut in the band and are made to wrap around the boot and catch on a small hook. Wrap it as tight as you can by hand and then look for a square part of the band which will need to be crimped. We use tile snips or end cutters to crimp the band together tight. You may want to tap the crimped part of the band down and then crimp it again so that it doesn't stick up and get hit by anything.
