Using your Brooks Ghost Max Leather shoes is a breeze. Just slip them on like you would with any other pair of shoes, and you're ready to go for a run or take a walk around the city. When you're done using them, it's a good idea to let them air dry naturally after a sweaty workout. Don't put them in the dryer as the heat might damage the leather. To clean them, use a soft, damp cloth to wipe off dirt and stains. You can also use a mild leather cleaner if needed. Avoid wearing these shoes in extremely wet or muddy conditions for long periods to preserve the leather's quality. And remember, even though they're durable, it's important to replace them when the sole shows significant wear to keep getting the best support and comfort.
