Clae Mills Sneakers in Black
Trainers in the gym go with active and sweaty. Trainers on the street go with grown and sexy. Such is the case with Clae's Mills sneaker for Fall. The smooth black leather with the very subtle texture make this sneaker a nice one to dress up with wool trousers, thin-waled cords or over-dyed khakis.
