Are these stylish?

these

Or am I having another a terrible lapse in judgement?

I am neither young nor old enough to look right in them. :)

I'm 25. Am I getting too old to be wearing pulling off things like this?

Naaaaah. The colour would put me off a bit, though, but that's because I am crap at cleaning shoes.

I saw two 14 yo wearing something similar yesterday - I just know that I couldn't pull it off but I don't think it's an age thing...it's about having the right rest of the outfit to wear with it and also about having the right feet for brogues. I would avoid if you have proportionally large feet.

See, I wondered what Belle meant by the young/old comment, but having looked at them I understand completely.

For what it's worth, I think they're minging but I can picture a couple of my more stylish mates looking v cool in them. I would look like your gran.

I think it's another one of those things I buy wanting to be more stylish, but I always wear them wrong and end up looking worse than I did before.

Definitely not. Bad colour and not either traditional enough (dark brown polished leather) nor funky enough to be stylish.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Step away from them. In fact I'd go so far as to say step away from Clarks
what about these
or two tone

Think theyd poss be ok in a darker leather. Or something bit radical like yellow, blue etc. But these are pensioner beige and I could imagine the 96 year old I care for going for them. You would really need a very on trend outfit to carry these off. Maybe bright skinny jeans, baggy top, scarf etc.

My gran used to wear shoes like that

Another no vote!!! Sorry!

Yuck! Even on Alexa Cheung they would still look horrid. Sorry.

I think I know what you mean, Broom. When I first clicked I reeled in horror, now I'm sort of thinking, hmmmmm, wide leg troos with a small turn up, could look quite nice. Not that old lady brown colour though and the laces look cheap.

Hideous. I hate brogues full stop, but if you are going down that road, don't go to Clarks!

New Look have got loads, like these. Don't waste your money if you're not sure.

I wear some similar ones from next and I'm 34. No age limits in my wardrobe

I quite like those new look ones, cute!

I think they're awful, sorry - they remind me of the sort of thing a nasty 1980s salesman would wear. I don't mind brogues or Clarks in general though, how about these?

I think they're trying to be something that they're not, sorry. There are much more stylish versions around which, at 25, you could certainly pull off. God, I'm 37 and would def wear a trendier version of those.

No, no and thrice no.

Sorry.

They look like those orthopaedic insert shoes that my nan used to wear, with breathable matting stuff on the instep.

If you're approaching your 80's, you might just carry it off.

A definite no then

From now on I may run all by purchases by you lot first. Clearly I can't be trusted.

hideous

Ewww no and I was expecting to come on and agree as I don't mind Clarks shoes!
