Are these “old lady” sandals?

[ANiceLuxury]

I have pregnancy damage internal and it causes me to have a swollen foot. Its just the one foot and therefor shoes are a nightmare as i cant get alot of shoes on the fat foot.

I ve seen these and think as they are adjustable then they may be suitable.

Im only 31 and i was hoping they werent old lady sandals.

What are your thoughts please?

I was thinking of the black colour

They look like some Fly sandals I used to have, so on that basis I’d say no they aren’t!
Honestly if you’re in pain and they fit just go for it.
I find Clark’s ‘e’ fit sandals are good as I have a fatter foot due to poor circulation / damaged muscle.

They're fine. They'd only look old ladyish if you paired them with beige slacks and a pink cardie.

In this case I think comfort trumps style anyway.

I think it would depend on what u were wearing them with, as i do think with the right clothes u could pull them off.

Sole is like a Birkenstock which is super comfy, I have the flip flop style; love them.

And I'd go for black too

why do you have to demean your sex by using "old lady" as something derogatory?

Well I’m 50 and you couldn’t pay me to wear them.

I have no pain, just a swollen foot.

It’s a nuisance!!

I wear jeggings 90% of the time

Combined with some pretty toenails they'd be great. They're quite funky:I like the red. Gotta admit I've never found a shoe from Hotter that isn't old ladyish so this is a surprise. No American Tan tights/fungal nails mind......

I meant old fashioned, for someone much older than I am.

I know hotter is known for being for people much older than me and I’m abit conscious of that

I'm only a bit older than you, OP. I have a version of those and they are so comfy!

Why do you use 'old lady' as shorthand for ugly?

I think they look fine and, even if they weren't, relax - no-one is going to look at your sandals and think you're 82.

Yes! I wouldn't wear them- they are beyond frumpy!

I drew breath when the link opened. They're plain ugly. Don't insult old ladies. I plan to wear nice shoes when I'm old.

And now I'm getting adverts from Hotter on MN pages.....
🙄

They're not like super fashionable but they're not old lady. Just a normal everyday sandal tbh

No OP, I can't imagine my mum in them so you are fine!

I think they're ok. I'd wear them if they were comfortable and I think my mum would too. My mum loves hotter shoes.

Give it a rest

I HATE sandals, pretty much ALL of them, but they look no worse than 85% of sandals to me. Needs must. If they fit and are comfortable then 🤷🏻‍♀️ Buy the black & white ones, they’re almost kind of cute.

I don't like 'old lady's as a derogatory term.

They're fine and a bit Birkenstock ish BUT they're not particularly wide if that's what you need.

I drew breath when the link opened.
Really? Seems OTT.

Quite like them! I'd like some better colours.

Love that it said 100+ people are looking at this page .

They're borderline.
Red or cow print ones look good

They look comfortable. I would wear them but I feel old (50 next week). I wear mostly Fly shoes though and like a chunkier look

I think at your age you can pull off something a bit orthopaedic as a style choice. Teva hurricane also worth a look if they fit your feet - supremely comfy and having a bit of a moment.
