Too old for Converse Runstar Hike??

16 replies

ajinek · 15/02/2022 20:36

Hello, I am after a bit of advice. I am 35 years old mom of three who spends her days in jeans, leggings, jumpers and trainers. I love fashion trainers a lot, I have several pairs and I love when they are a bit different (gold, rose gold accent, flowers.. ). Anyway, I bought these Converse Runstar Hike but I feel I am too old for them even though I love them. I am after an opinion whether to keep them or return them. Thank you!!

Keep them!

Firstly, old? You're still a whippersnapper!

Secondly, keep them, wear them and love them!

Keep them if you love them. If I am honest I think they are quite little girlish but really if you like them who cares? Life is short. Wear the shoes!

Ooh I love them and I am way older than you - if I can find some I’ll be buying them and wearing them - life is too short! Why on earth do you think you are too old?

I have them in black! I’m 36 and sometimes wonder if I’m too old for them but I LOVE them so fuck it!

I'm 60, dammit, and have been looking at these with a lot of interest!

penelopequiche · 16/02/2022 07:35

Just do it! Why on earth not?! They will give you a little lift every time you wear them. There's nothing like finding a pair that you really love. Go for it!

I'm 40 and have just bought some black ones. Quite excited about wearing them today.

SoupDragon · 16/02/2022 08:55

Once you are over 30 you should only wear these.

(Not really - wear what you like! Of course you aren't too old)

AngelsWithSilverWings · 16/02/2022 09:33

I'm 52 and would wear them if they were my thing. Never been into pink but would wear that style no problem. I wouldn't bay an eyelid if one of my friends wore them and I can actually think of one who would love them and definitely wear them.

CorrBlimeyGG · 16/02/2022 09:37

The pattern is not for me but nothing wrong with the style. And the more odd pattern is why they're reduced so much, so you've got a bargain!

mamakoukla · 16/02/2022 13:37

Life’s too short. Go enjoy them, with a skip in your step!

CambsAlways · 16/02/2022 14:07

Good grief I’m in my sixties and I wear them , what’s all this I’m too old buisness, it’s footwear

Creps are ageless! Enjoy
