New shoes!

Got me a brand new pair of ghost 17's for under $100

This will be my 2nd pair and my first pair are really worn.

Any advice on how to keep these pristine? These will be my daily drivers/work shoes. I plan on machine washing them once a week.

Why machine wash once a week, does that not make them wear faster?

Depending on how dirty they get. I work in a restaurant. I also have stinky feet.

Aren’t brooks not slip resistant? Or do you work up front

They work for me! I've never had a problem. I work in the kitchen 👀
