Not keen sorry.

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 29/11/2019 21:25

Hideous. Sorry, but they really are. Pantomime Dame shoes.

Greenglassteacup · 29/11/2019 21:26

They are horrendous

Th1me · 29/11/2019 21:26

Thanks - I said really bad, 16 year old dd loves them!

They remind me of Irish dancing shoes. Maybe the pose is also contributing to that!

I’m not keen either.

Is it 1840? Sorry unless you're a goth it's a no from me.

Greenglassteacup · 29/11/2019 21:28

No self respecting goth would have been seen in these

Sexnotgender · 29/11/2019 21:30

Really not a fan!

Th1me · 29/11/2019 21:31

Theyre a bit steam punk? I quite like them

Sparklyring · 29/11/2019 21:35

Child catcher shoes!

Onehellofaride · 29/11/2019 21:36

Not a fan, they don’t know what they are!

kenandbarbie · 29/11/2019 21:37

Awful like witches shoes

MargotLovedTom1 · 29/11/2019 21:38

Not my cup of tea, and my similar age dd lives in Vans and wouldn't look twice at them, however your DD loves them and she's the one wearing them so that's that, really.

Strictly1972 · 29/11/2019 21:38

I really like them! I might need to have a word with myself based on the responses above.

Th1me · 29/11/2019 21:39

She won’t have anything like Vans or trainers. Leads towards the goth look. We are looking for boots for her for Christmas and she has come up with these!!

Leads - leans

AtrociousCircumstance · 29/11/2019 21:40

I think they’ll look great on a 16 year old who knows her own tastes! Smile

AnnaNimmity · 29/11/2019 21:41

are they a bit steam punk?

RuthW · 29/11/2019 21:41

Love them.

Ninjakittysmellz · 29/11/2019 21:42

For me as a 36yo mother - hideous.

For a 16 year old who loves them. Go for it!

StoneColdSaidSo · 29/11/2019 21:43

Way too Mary Poppins for me!

HuckfromScandal · 29/11/2019 21:45

Going against the grain, I love them
I would definitely wear them, And I am 46

SweetSally · 29/11/2019 21:45

Good for fancy costume (ONLY!}

Pipersouth · 29/11/2019 21:59

Sorry I would definitely wear
