Are these cool/old lady/something else?

I saw these sandals last summer and loved them, but then thought they might in actual fact be awful and old lady like, but I am back looking at them again and cannot tell what they actually look like.

What do you think?

@SnarkyBag

If they weren’t Ugg and £100 but were £20 in the Pavers concession at the garden centre would you look twice at them?
Haha!! This is so true!!!

Nah, prefer Birkenstock Arizona. I live in them and love them.

Definitely old lady, but I'm of an age where comfort is important, so if I kept going back to them I'd buy them. Maybe you could dye them, but definitely paint your toenails in a snazzy colour, and wear them for daytime comfort. There are all sorts of ways you could customise them.

Just looked at the Cotton Traders ones, and agree - go for those rather than have the mess of dyeing the Ugg ones.

Good for shopping with long trousers. Very expensive shopping shoes...

Depends how you style them out. cropped or skinny jeans and a t-shirt would make them look chic, or a flowy skirt with a blouse tucked in. I can only see them looking old if everything else you're wearing looks old

BeagleEagle · 10/03/2021 17:06

They're better in black than brown

I wouldn't call them cool.
If you like that kind of style ,I think these are "cooler"
