I love it when hotels do this kinda shit

There's nothing worse than when a hotel or restaurant goes all out on a uniform and doesn't supply their staff with shoes. You got some hot cocktailer all done up in a nice top, those sexy black slacks that make their asses look so nice, and then a beat up old pair of black sketchers. Lately we've seen both The Hilton in Hawaii and those pod hotels in Japan and New York partner with New Balance to release exclusive "ee" (employee edition) models and color ways. Not to be outdone the ever hip Ace Hotel has taken a similar route with their new Palm Springs location. Ace has partnered with Arkitip and Generic Supplies to release this deck shoe of sorts. The shoe is made from an new type of mesh material made to both breath in the hot sun, and dry quickly from any pool side accidents. These shoes are also made with a slip resistant sole making them excellent to work in. It ls a great looking shoe that really captures the feel of a Palm Springs resort. Further more unlike their predecessors these staff shoes will be available to the public with a custom tote bag for $85. Another home run for Ace Hotels.
