The four pieces of wire is so that each side sits flat. If you run a single strand around the corner it bulges outand the boot doesn't sit tight.
It can be (and was done) done with a single long piece of wire, if you run some past each corner so as to form a loop that you can tighten by twisting at each corner. Does that make sense? A bit of practice will help.
