Help me with shoes!!

[MyGhastIsFlabbered]

I need new shoes for work and quite like these. Are they too 'trying hard to be cool'? Or just plain ugly?

I think they are ok if you're young, maybe college aged but they are quite ugly. What were you going to wear with them, do you need to be smart/casual at wok.

I like them. Would prefer a similar shoe with no heel, but I'd wear them.

They are ok, they are definetly not trying to be cool though. They are just, well, ok

I'm definitely not college aged. Try mid 40s. Where I work is smart casual really, jeans are not ok. I normally wear cord pinafores.

They look very plasticky and like they would have no ‘give’

They're not leather.

They have a 'Hotter' feel about them.

Do you want a heel? There are lots of nice flat brogues about.

Op I was just about to say pinafores 😊

Maybe the dr marten Mary Jane style shoe? Leather so you know they'll last

Mary janes or brogues would look nice.

Really don’t like them! Sorry

I'm vegan so leather shoes are out. I do like doc marten Mary Janes but can't find any vegan ones.

I quite like the heel on these.

What about the vegan doc marten lace up shoes that come in black or oxblood? They’d go with pinafore dresses

I love those vegetarian shoes but they're not available in my size

What size are you, do they have to be black.

I'm a size 5 (38)

I do prefer black. Never been a fan of brown/tan/beige or navy.

What about these?

I think dr martens lave up brogues are nicer than those and more durable too

They come in vegan leather, ie plastic too

The doc marten brogues are lovely but they're also £130 which I don't have. I need a cheap fix

The vegetarian shoe site have similar suede ones called Everley in a 38. Cant link on this phone. £70.

I live in this kind of thing for work as they go with dresses or trousers and they’re comfy if you need to be on feet/travelling somewhere. And these ones are vegan.

I like the original ones OP. With some tights and a pinafore would look great. If you like them then wear them.
