I absolutely love my Millers. They were my first foray into Paul Smith shoes and I swear by them now. My Millers have been through hell and back. I've worn them throughout an entire Canadian winter and totally beat them up....and they've still held up without a problem! They actually look better worn than the day I got them. I have them in brown and the main advantage of these over my Chucks is that the welt on the sole is not apparent as is on the Chuck model.
