I agree I don't like the Clarks. They look like an orthopedic shoe to me. As far as some thinking it isn't age appropriate I say you should wear what you want, who cares what someone (you probably don't know) thinks!

I'm 52 and I think they are adorable! I was thinking of the black or taupe. Just not sure how to wear/style them. Maybe a pair of straight leg jeans rolled up with them. Or, I can wear with boot leg jeans and the jeans over the boots. I do wish they had more of a heel as I am short.

I think if you are over 50 or 60, the black would be the only ones that would be more age appropriate IMO but I did pass.
I think you can wear whatever you are comfortable with. Age is in the mind. I'm 52 and I like the Taupe. Black is too dark or gothic for me. It's just a boot. I think anyone can wear it in any color.

I will probably wear them with boot cut jeans so you won't see the top part most of the time anyway. I have other Ryka sneakers that I love so hoping these are just as comfie.
I love the taupe especially with the pink laces. I didnt' have time this a.m. to see a presentation so I had NO idea which size to wear. Typically Ryka runs small. The 8.5 is now gone in taupe. I may waitlist the 8 to see if the 8 will fit. They are very cute! Enjoy the taupe!

I am 65 yrs young & ordered the Navy. Seriously thinking about ordering the gray & brown or maybe black.
I will rock these TSV w/skinny jeans w/the shoe tongue hanging over & out, sweats & w/leggings.
Since they are weather resistant, they will be perfect if I get caught in the rain or a snow flurry. I already have cute waterproof ankle boots from LLBean for those "snow" days.

I had surgery on my left ankle 8 years ago and the time for it to heal and then for me to get rehabbed was career ending, I don't want to go through that again if I can possibly avoid it. While these shoes are not at all attractive they may be a good idea for me. If they don't give any support to my ankle I will return them.
@151949, you may want to look at them from a different perspective . . . I think they are cute, adorable, AND very attractive. Change your mind and change your experience.

I am 57 and also ordered taupe. I wear what I want, and don't worry about what other people think. I will wear them with skinny jeans, I think they will be great for winter.

@Beeweaver, you might want to consider getting some little wedge lifts to put inside these. I like a little height in my shoes, too, even though I am 5'7", and bought some wedge lifts at Walmart last year to use in my Ugg type boots. I think they will work well with these, too. Just got my pair in tan/olive and love them! Ordered my regular size 7 and they feel great, plenty long enough.

Awesome! I had no idea where to get them. Thanks so much for the info.! I think I am going to get the Taupe.
