Are these nice or hideous?

[KoalaDownUnder]

Puma Basket Strap Exotic Skin suede sneakers. Leather upper. Extremely discounted so can't be returned. Last pair.

Will they look clunky and awful on a size 41 foot?

Could go either way depending on the outfit they are worn with...the colour gives them the propensity to look a bit orthopaedic...

Hmm. I think they're different ones, Faux...different sole colour and only 2 straps??

But yes, I see your point...

I don't think they are flattering.

I quite like the style, but not the colour, which I don't think would be flattering.

Btw, my feet are size 41 and tend to look huge in that sort of colour.

They're fab if you're 97 years old

I think they'd look very nice with cropped jeans

Ugh, I think you are all right.

Thank you!

I know they are different Koala - they are actual orthopaedic shoes that the ones in your link reminded me of

They are shoes for the elderly. And the colour beige is 🤢. Sorry

Oh, I get you Faux.

I think they're actually for hyper-trendy twenty-somethings, which I'm not, so they'll end up looking like shoes for the elderly on me.

There are some fashions that are so dangerous for that - only look right on the young or the old - if you are in the middle the 'look' can go either way!

I think you're spot-on.

I've got some very similar- grey suede Stan smiths with Velcro straps. I swing between thinking they look really nice to that they look like something you'd see in a magazine that sells portable urinals and jazzy walking aids. Mine were cheap in the sale and they are bloody comfy though. Also I was self conscious with them on at a toddler group and looked around at all the other footwear and realised I had nothing to worry about and that most people where I live don't notice these things....

I am 22 and like them, but I have a propensity to quite like orthopaedic footwear so I may not be the best judge.

silk, I'm old enough to be your mum, sadly . And I have big feet.

I searched them on Pinterest and they look cool on young people with small feet.

Koala there is nothing wrong with the shoes you've linked to. I think some posters are commenting on the shoes faux has shown which as she's said are orthopaedic shoes for the elderly.

Nothing wrong with those. Either way I'm of the opinion that if you like it then wear it, f*ck what others think
