Do these look like Granny boots to you? Mumsnet verdict required!

[Flier]

I really like these Timberland boots, but DH thinks they look like boots that old grannies wear - I'd like the Mumsnet verdict please!

I like the black and brown ones, but not the beige ones. Don't think they look like granny boots!

Not my style but I've seen plenty of women in similar boots who all like fine imo.

But then I'm old enough to be a Granny so maybe my opinion is biased!

not grannyish in my opinion but I'm not that keen on them..

brown and black look ok quite trendy and stylish beige def looks grannyish tho

look fine.

Yes, beige ones not a practical colour [granny]

I say granny too, but I am 24. You may wish to ignore my opinion.
Particularly 'granny' in beige, might I add.

No, not Grannyish imo. Sensible and easy to wear as long as not in the cream .

I think if you are really tall and willowy, they will look nice.

They would make me look like the dwarf in Lord of the Rings, I think.

It's that rubber strip.
Not keen, but I wouldn't say they're horrible.

ive just got these from TKMaxx - much nicer in RL, and RRP is £90 and they are £37 on sale there

I saw those in TKMaxx, but they looked like fireman wellies on me. I ended up getting some rocket dog long brown ones for £30 instead.
I do think the boots in the OP are overpriced, or at least you could find similar for cheaper...

thanks everyone. I'm fairly tall and slim (slim at the mo anyway!) and will be getting them in black, so think I'll go for them.

Hmm, methinks a trip to TKMaxx may be in order!

What rocket dog ones did you get for 30 quid please vanillapumpkin

Like these They are brown and the trim is red and yellow and green, but not obvious enough so that you couldn't wear pink if you see what I mean. They are SOOOO comfortable and look great over my jeans. I have had compliments from lots of people (probably in shock that I am not in trainers). The label said they are £80 new and there were quite a few different sizes. I think I got them about two weeks ago, but there are a few sizes on ebay too. HTH
