Am I wearing frumpy shoes?

[Sallystyle]

My teen boys think so

They are very comfortable and cool and I'm more than happy to wear them, but are they alone with their opinion?

Hideous!

I think they are being polite

My mouth is still wide open at the fugliness OP

Can't believe you would pay good money for those!

I thought "they can't be that bad..."

Then clicked on the link and almost gagged. They are truly hideous OP.

My mother told me if I didn't have anything nice to say, say nothing at all. Mums the word..

They....aren't great OP.

I've never seen shoes like them before

Wow!! They are special!

I'll be having nightmares tonight

Apparently they won't go out with me wearing them.

Really laughed at this

I've seen your good advice on several threads OP.
I will always 'see' the shoes now, when I read your posts.

Fuck me.

Did you make those out of shopping bags?

I've got 2 pairs-a black pair and a pink pair (even pinker Tha yours).

I thought they were...edgy and cool. Seems I'm mistaken.

I think they are funky not frumpy.
I wouldn't be seen dead in them though

Yep I'd file those under frumplicious

My eyes MY EYES!!!

They are heinous, OP. Sorry. Your kids are applying tough love for your own good.

I keep clicking back on the link because I can't quite believe they exist. The other colour look like an 8 year old has made them with the elastic bands they've collected on their scooter neck.

They look like shoes that you'd buy in some hippy shop. The kind that would come with a label saying 'handwoven by female prisoners in Belize'.

I think my nan had a 1970s sun lounger made from the same stuff. Chafed every time you had to get your bare skin off it.

U2, don't listen to the haterz

Some of the worst shoes I've ever seen.

They don't look comfortable to me, but I think they are fine- if you do a quick scan of summer feet, most people are rather untrendy sandals, it's actually hard to get a stylish cool pair.

I think it depends what you wear them with. I don't get the hatred, and I have seen way worse clumpy awful going trekking for a month type affairs, these could look ok with good jeans with a little turn up...

I'm all for comfort but I think they're grim. But maybe they could be argued to be funky/ so ugly they're cool, I suppose ...

I bet Timmy Mallet's girlfriend wears shoes like that.

And I'd say Su Pollard has a pair for when she's chillaxing around the house.
