What kind of person would wear these?

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!

I wear these as a compromise 😀 and love them!

They look like 1970s school shoes. I like them and would wear them. Absolutely love the red ones.

isitsnowingyett · 26/11/2024 20:56

Well they're certainly not " fuck me" shoes 😂

IHaveNeverLivedintheCastle · 26/11/2024 21:17

I clicked on the thread expecting something like those awful shoes with individual toes.

Reality, perfectly nice shoes, nothing outré and a lot nicer than say, oh every single pair of loafers or trainers posted on here.

K0OLA1D · 26/11/2024 21:19

I have some a bit like that but with cat faces on the toe. I wear them to work all the time.

I love them and have had many comments from others. If you like them get them and wear them

Britpopbaby · 26/11/2024 21:23

I’d think a very style confident person. I’d wear them with coloured tights and a dress or short skirt.

Also love these, where are they from ?

CoffeeAndPeanuts · 26/11/2024 21:29

If I'd had the figure I want, to wear the clothes I like, I'd definitely have some of these, but as I dress for the body I have I don't have any.

Plus I wear sketchers to keep the planter fasciitis away, I think these might kill me off!!

The sort of person I'm jealous of and/ or want as a friend. I've sent these and I love them - dark academia style.

I would think the sort of person who would wear these shoes is a bit childish, doesn't care about clothes and has no sense of style whatsoever ... but we all have different taste, and I'm sure people look at me and hate what I'm wearing.

pooptastic · 26/11/2024 21:47

Good old Clarks! Very comfy and smart with opaques and winter dresses.

Any chance you could post a photo or tell us where you got them from?

Clingfilm · 26/11/2024 21:50

Love. I bought the Joanie oxblood ones but found them a tad too big so sent them back. Still hankering after them though...
I'd think the person wearing them knows their own mind and is confident in their choices 😉

Luckingfovely · 26/11/2024 20:22

Plague, obviously...

That's okay, I want to avoid plaque too...

😬

I'd expect them to be worn by someone arty. Which is a compliment.

StraighttoCrone · 26/11/2024 21:54

I love them. I alternate between clunky boots, trainers and fisherman-style sandals.These are sort of a compromise between all three so I suppose I am the sort of person who would wear them.

But they're not 'fuck you' shoes either. 😁

StormingNorman · 26/11/2024 22:02

Either a pink or an art teacher.

sunshineandshowers40 · 26/11/2024 22:04

I like them and would wear them! Have some similar that wear with skirts/dresses.

Well you'd be wrong. I love clothes. Spend a lot of money on clothes and in real life get loads of compliments, from friends, work colleagues, and random strangers about my clothes. I don't have a pair of T bars but I really like the ox blood Joannie ones.

These are a pricier version and they're gorgeous.

I thought they were DMs, my DD19 has similar and wears them with wide leg jeans and a harrington jacket

iwishihadaname · 26/11/2024 22:39

I would think they are work shoes and person is on feet a lot so need comfy practical shoes

ForGreyKoala · 26/11/2024 23:00

I would admire them - I like them. Don't worry about what others think OP, wear what makes you happy.

WalterdelaMare · 26/11/2024 23:04

Su Pollard? Someone that likes adult sized kids’ clothes and wears whimsical earrings and bright glasses.

Candleabra · 26/11/2024 23:05

I love them. Id definitely wear them.
