What would you wear with these shoes?

I'm going through one of my regular 'I hate all my clothes' phases, I need to sort them out but I'm starting with shoes. These are really comfortable and I like them but do they just look like a man's shoe? Or an old persons shoe? Can I wear anything with them that would look nice?

There is nothing you could wear with them.

They are just brown clumpy nothings.

I bet you've got nicer shoes in your collection. Don't keep them just cos they are comfy!

ScarletForYa · 08/04/2016 18:03

They're irredeemable!

A short mini skirt with thick black tights.

Do you have a Granddad with the same size feet as you?

I've obviously worn them before but a few years ago and I can't remember what with. Whatever it waa it was clearly a mistake Blush

I agree with greengardenpixie - thick black tights and short skirt would look ok.

MoreGilmoreGirls · 08/04/2016 18:38

I did think they were man's shoes. Sorry.

Madbengalmum · 08/04/2016 18:40

Sorry, i would have nothing to wear with them

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 08/04/2016 19:06

They're awful. Sorry but they look like loaves of bread.

You are a Smiths fan, yep? Think - what would your 19 year old self have thought of these? Burn them, for goodness sake!

Greengardenpixie · 08/04/2016 19:06

Tbh, they look a bit like camper shoes. [ the brand not to go camping in ha ha]

Nettletheelf · 08/04/2016 23:05

A disguise.

BTW, black tights and brown shoes look terrible together. I had to fight the urge to tell a girl so in the station this week.

GooodMythicalMorning · 08/04/2016 23:11

I dont know! burn them

NewStickers · 08/04/2016 23:14

I like them! I would wear them with a pair of wide legged, tailored trousers. The colour is an issue though - tan trousers would work

FriendofBill · 08/04/2016 23:44

Mustard or navy tights.
Satchel.
Mini skirt.

I think the angle is bad but they look like a standard tan shoe to me.

FriendofBill · 08/04/2016 23:45

They are a bit quirky.
Ankle exposed.
If you got good legs you can do it.

Narp · 09/04/2016 10:15

Friend

i think you'd only get away with that if you were a knock-kneed 20-something ingenue on an advert for The Kooples

Wearyhem with paper bag over your head. Smile
Donate them to a charity shop.

Dotheskankyleg · 09/04/2016 14:19

Just looking at that shoe is making me laugh so hard. I can't recommend anything but thanks for posting it OPGrin
