What kind of person would wear these?

[Justkoko]

Or what would you think if you saw someone wearing these for work/everyday? Eg with jeans or a mini and black opaques.
Always drawn to t bars but not sure if people will think it looks a bit school-ly or silly for a grown woman! Plus fancy a departure from my usual loafers!

They look like childrens' shoes, but if you like them, that's all that matters

They look like my kids first shoe

I love them.i'd wear them.

The first one is quite cute. I could imagine anyone from aged 10 to 90 pulling them off. It's just like a DM with a bit more frivolity. It's giving a bit of 'rebellious' school shoe but with a wide jean it would look alright on most ages.

They look like kids shoes. Love them!

Love the first ones and would wear them at 61. Not keen on the others but am fussy about the shape of a shoe!

Joanie have some in at the moment, I'm very tempted by the red ones as I had some when. Was six and remember being excited to get them.

They do look like children's shoes though but up to you if that's bothers you

if this is an adult person wearing them, I’d assume they were the sort of person who was into academia look, probably combined with lots of autumnal shades of corduroy /tweeds.

as they are very “little girl school shoes” look, probably combined with with overlong sleeves over hands look. Or “jolly” knitwear.

Someone who does not care what people may think of their shoe game! I like the oxblood pair, the most.

I think the ox blood ones are the Joannie. I like them. I could see myself wearing them. I don't like the other 2 , although I'd pick all of them over loafers.

I can imagine they'd have a trendy/ strange haircut, boring clothes with an edgy twist. Looks a bit odd but is able to carry it off.

Divided then, though the school shoe thing is clear. I don't want to look like I'm dressing up as a child, though my style is definitely not sharp fashion. I wouldnt say i am full academia but closer to that than high fashion. You wouldn't catch me in stilettos, just not me. I'm a gazelles and and jeans kind of person. An indie kid on the inside.

Maybe I would always have that thought at the back of my mind and never feel quite 'right' in them.
They are joanie by the way. Lovely leather and seem very comfortable.

I like them ! Where are they from? As I'm wanting to replace a pair I've almost worn out

I wear them to work with tights I'm on my feet all day but sometimes want to feel smarter and wear a dress and comfy leather shoes.

Also in the summer with summer dresses have to have closed toe shoes

Only joking… they’re cool in a geek chic way.

I have several pairs like this

I love them, I've never really cared what anyone else thinks.

I had these in brown as my school shoes in the 90s. They were lovely but my abiding memory of them were they were awful heavy.

I see them worn a lot with black opaques and nursing uniforms!
Sorry, not very helpful but these are a staple in nhs area that I work.

Er <awkwardly raises hand>

I own these and I love them. They're really comfortable and practical and I wear them a lot, especially in winter as they do especially well with thick socks.

I normally wear them with midi dresses/skirts and padded socks with lettuce frill socks on top (the sizes run big, but it keeps my feet warm).

I think they are very cool - as someone else said, Joanie also have some very nice ones. They don’t suit me sadly. If they did I would wear them with opaque tights and a cord pinafore, so yes, quite primary school in style.

I'd wear them OP...I love something a bit different from 'the norm' , what you described wearing them with sounds perfect! Go for it!!! Get a pair and try them on if u feel comfortable......sod society's opinion

Oh! They are the Joanie ones!

I have the t bar shoes with a heel in two colours - also resemble a school shoe.

That's what I'd wear them with.

I'd think they were trying too hard to be 'different!' and 'individual!' and 'young-at-heart!' and 'fun!' and 'quirky!' and avoid like the plaque

I'm also happy to admit that that may well be my own huge loss .

Plague, obviously...
