I’m 45 and want to buy a pair of Doctor Martin’s in the Mary Jane style.

Am I too old and what can I wear with them?

Any ideas welcome :)

Of course you should buy them.

I have a pair of platform Mary Janes. I don’t care if I’m too old, I love them!

  2. Everything, but mostly thick socks to start with

I’m 53 and I have a pair. It’s like waking on air!

I'm nearly 45 and have a pair. I love them. I haven't worn them for ages Sad(mainly because I only go out for shopping or muddy walks)

Do it! Saw a fabulously funky lady the other day. Long silver hair, nose ring, platform DM boots. My guess is she was quite a bit older than mid 40s. She looked fab’.

im 38 and i have about 35 various pairs of Dr Martens including mary janes and i say DO IT!! no ones too old!!

I'm 53 and they're next on my list for shoes I want. It entirely depends on what you wear them with and also how you wear them - if you like them, they make you feel good then you'll wear them with confidence. I say go for it!
