I bought these sandals today, please tell me what to wear with them!

[WakeUpFast]

I totally fell in love with these today. Firstly, I'm 33 years old, do they look like something a 30 year old would wear?

Secondly, what would I wear with these? Could I wear some chinos or nice maxi skirts? What about skinny jeans?

[Believeitornot]

There's no link?

[WakeUpFast]

Duh! Sorry!

[kittybiscuits]

A thong.

[WakeUpFast]

Erm, don't think my piles would appreciate the thong!

[fiorentina]

I would probably wear them with cropped chinos or rolled up skinnies? I think if you only see the base of them they may look a little odd? Can you just have a try on session?

[WakeUpFast]

Yes I agree, anything I wear needs to show the whole shoe. I can't try them on as they're at home and I'm on night duty with an ill relative, but will try tomorrow morning!

[fiorentina]

Poor you. Hopefully they will work when you get home.

[WakeUpFast]

Do they look nice though?

[TondelayaDellaVentamiglia]

they would slice my feet to ribbons...

your toes are going to end up with a permanent crimp in them and your ankle bones will be razed off, one bony curl at a time

I do not care for them.

[WakeUpFast]

Wtf? I don't plan on super gluing them to my feet 😂😂

Thanks for your input, I'll remember you when my ankle bone (😕) is being razored off.

[Runningupthathill82]

They're very...odd! And do look like they're going to rub on your ankle.
But if I were to wear them it'd be with rolled up chinos, shorts, cropped harem trousers or similar.

[Runningupthathill82]

Do they look like something a 30-year-old would wear?

Honestly, no. It's Clarks' attempt at a trendy sandal. The sole, the stitching on it, and the tassel are fugly IMO. My mum would buy them for her holiday. She's 64.

[Ledkr]

Wear them with a chunky toga

[Snog]

Rolled up chinos is good advice but honestly I'm not much of a fan (but I'm in my 40s ) Are they really comfy?

[Patterkiller]

I think my issue with them is that they have a heel. Sandals of that ilk usually are totally flat or wedged. They do look like the love child of a trendy sandal and a sensible walking shoe.

Although it may be just the angle of the photo. But yes to cropped chinos.

[Leelooo]

They look like gladiators. I'm not keen. Sorry

[heyhulahoop]

Ankle grazer skinnies, or midi pencil skirts.

[brassbrass]

They will go with just about anything casual -

festival/boho/gypsy skirts
denim shorts/skirt
casual dresses
any ankle grazing trousers that don't cover them up

I like gladiators not sure why so many people are not keen. I have a lovely pair of Roman looking gladiators bought on holiday in Italy. I searched high and low for them!

[Kr1stina]

Did you keep the receipt ?

[UntilTheCowsComeHome]

I'm 36 and they are way too old for me.

My mum would think they were old too.

There are much nicer sandals about.

[UntilTheCowsComeHome]

These or these are much nicer.

[ZaZathecat]

I like them OP! I have some quite similar from New Look and I don't think their demographic is the elderly.

[Beautifullymixed]

These comments have had me

Sorry OP , it was probably not what you wanted to hear at all.......

They do look like the love child of a trendy sandal and a sensible walking shoe.


I'm 43, and I wouldn't, my mother also wouldn't........

[ILostItInTheEarlyNineties]

My fashion tip would be to wear without socks.
