Am I too old for these boots?

I am 41, are these too young for me?

If they’re ok, what would you wear with them on a hen do?! 🌹

I wear Solovair derby boots not DMs, and I think you should wear footwear that are comfortable and that you like. Age doesn't come into it.

@DuesToTheDirt , if you alternate your footwear they last longer.

Yeah, I can tell myself that lol! The current pair have lasted 5 years though and still going strong, worn most days except during lockdown. I'm now on my third pair of laces for them - this time I bought extra-strong laces!

I have to remind myself that I only have one pair of feet.
I have several pairs/versions of the 'one pair that I could wear with everything'.

I'm paranoid now! I'm 40 and I've just bought these. Totally out there for me but I bloody love them and they're really comfortable but honestly are they too young for me??

Not if you can walk in them.

I've got some Blowfish non-leather boots ( I had a pang of regret not buying some sage green lace up boots in a Vegan Footwear shop in Brighton so bought the Blowfish ones -in tan)

I've only ever worn them with jrans TBH , luckily they have a side zip otherwise it would rake me a week to put them on, I;m 56 yo

DMs wouldn;t suit my horribly narrow hypermobile feet but my Mum used to wear the shoes when she worked ( bakery , on her feet all day ) she loved them !

I'm early 50s & would not wear those boots or indeed any DMs. Nothing to so with age. I just don't like them.
I wore bottle green ones in my 20s
My 17 Yr old wears black patent laced shoes & she loved most them. They KILLED her feet trying to break them I'm though & took months.
I would have thrown them away but she stuck with them

I think they are a young persons boot, but a Vivienne Westwood rocker would get away with it.

It's entirely up to you and your style, not age.

I wear DMs at 68, and while those are not for me, I would wear them with black clothes to offset the flowers.

If you like them, if they fit, if you can afford them, then they're perfect for you, whatever age you are.

Stop with the ageist shit.
