These boots ok?

[Polkapjs]

Sale at Clarks £30. Horrid or ok?

It depends. They’re a no for me because they’re beige (I don’t do beige) and to my eye, too tame.

I can imagine someone else thinking they’re smart but comfortable and they’ll go with loads of outfits.

Look fine to me! Would look nice with jeans

I think they look smart and comfortable and would look good with jeans

They’re more grey than beige - inoffensive I can handle. Don’t want to be too ...erm ...mum boot though

I like them. They look practical and comfy and cute. I've got similar ones in navy.

Meh, not amazing, bit mumsy.

Weird. Tried to post earlier but I’ve just seen it’s there! Sorry. I promise I’m not attention seeking for my boring boots!

I love that Mumsnet is full of people determined to look anything but mumsy...

Look fairly similar to a pair I have from Russell and Bromley costing over 3x that price!!

I’m a mum. Happy to look like a mum but a mum who has chosen shoes not just wearing as they’re practical. But also a mum who has next to zero time to think for herself and values the opinions of the stylish ladies on here who have helped me a lot

They're just 'ok' I think OP. I think the shape makes them look a bit dated, they definitely look like they are from Clark's not topshop if you see what I mean.
I would probably wear them, especially if they're comfy, but in a kind of - found these in my wardrobe, they'll do for the day to day shoved on outfits/I want to get the use out of them, not because I was trying to style something up or look 'cool ' (not that I probably ever have). Extra caveat that yes obviously not everyone needs or wants to look on trend always, it's not better or worse blah blah

I'm not keen. There is nothing about them which indicates any thought has gone into making them stylish. They are just totally practical, bland boots.

@Polkapjs what are they called? I've been looking for something similar for work!

Lovely and there’s no such thing as ‘mumsy’.

I think they’re a great choice for something comfortable and easy to wear with a wide range of outfits, and the price is good. I would happily wear them, and I’d rely on my attitude and the way I carry myself to ensure they don’t come across in whatever way I am trying not to project.

I'm a mum and nearly 40 and I think they are really really boring and the sort of thing my MIL wears and she's 70. They are inoffensive of course, just a bit blah.

I tend to wear leather converse with jeans for casual though, which loads of people hate, so you know... different taste etc.

I’ll try on again in the house for comfort then decide. Not much spare money but I was after some boots for with skinnies which go with black, grey and blue and I think these fit the bill - I’ll try and find the name for a PP who liked them

They’re fine - nice and low-key. I’d probably take the tassel off the zip. £30 is good value!

It's the shoe equivalent of a potato. Boring, bland, useful.

I like them and would wear them -they look inoffensive and practical, but I’m not particularly fashionable/interested in clothes so perhaps not the best judge 🤔

No style name on them sorry. They were from an outlet shop though

Really nice, I'd wear them;).

I like those a lot. I'd wear them with blue or cream jeans or with brightly coloured tights and a short denim skirt.
