The classic ones. Are they age appropriate when in your 40s?

They are age appropriate at any age.

Thisyearcandoone · 07/10/2021 21:37

I have been pondering the same question for a few weeks!

...I'm off to buy a pair tomorrow! Purple. I'm 40!

Benjispruce4 · 07/10/2021 21:39

Absolutely!

PurpleDaisies · 07/10/2021 21:40

This is such a depressing question.

IhateBoswell · 07/10/2021 21:40

Of course!

fantasmasgoria1 · 07/10/2021 21:42

People need to stop associating ade with clothing, makeup, footwear etc. You wear what you want to wear whatever age you are.

Yes they are fantastic. They go with jeans and dresses. Warm, solid and comfortable. The soles are squishy.

I'm in my 50s and have Liberty print DMs. Are they age appropriate? Who knows? Who cares?

itsnotmeitsu · 08/10/2021 22:40

@SusannaOwens > I have several pairs of DrMartens, and now you've made me go on-line and order another pair; the Liberty print ones , because I hadn't known they existed Grin.

SusannaOwens · 08/10/2021 22:46

@itsnotmeitsu

Sorry, not sorryGrin. I've had mine a while, but there have been quite a few versions. I was coveting Liberty print Vans in the sales too, but the credit card wasn't willing!

SusannaOwens · 08/10/2021 22:50

Mine...

Cool boots and a lunch shot. I like your style 😎

SusannaOwens · 08/10/2021 22:58

Lol, the lunch was an accidental post, I did report it, at least it wasn't something far more identifying or worse Grin

IhateBoswell · 08/10/2021 22:59

Haha, I always get a sweaty brow when I upload a picture, just in case 😂

pictish · 08/10/2021 23:00

Docs are totally ageless. Wore them when I was 14, wear a very similar pair now at 46. Have always had a pair on the go.

I agree this question is depressing.

SusannaOwens · 08/10/2021 23:03

Ha, the lunch has gone now, thanks MN!

GeidiPrimes · 08/10/2021 23:11

I have these gaudy sandals. I'm 50. Wearing them has the effect of a cheese grater on my toes though! Despite being second-hand.

Of course Confused

Dfg15 · 08/10/2021 23:15

I’ve just ordered a pair and I’m 64, so I hope they’re ageless

daisyjgrey · 08/10/2021 23:24

This is the third thread I've seen this evening about clothing brands being age appropriate.

IF YOU LIKE IT, WEAR IT.

LunaTheCat · 09/10/2021 07:22

I met a 90 year old lady in docs a few weeks ago - I want to be that woman at 90.

Itsanewdah · 09/10/2021 07:24

Yes. Wearing mine to work in a central London big corporate office (creative department admittedly) and I’m not the only one.

Aerish · 09/10/2021 07:31

I have liked DMs for years but I don't wear leather. I am nearly 50 and I'm finally wearing a pair of vegan Docs with ribbon laces and they are great, I love them. We can wear what we like at any age.
