Middle-aged Women and combat boots........

[Mustwork4bags]

Hi ladies....I am almost 50 (but look young for my age) and am really wanting a pair of Chanel combat boots. What are your thoughts on middle aged women wearing them? I don’t want to look like I am trying too hard to be young or fit in. I’m so torn on feeling like I’m too old for these....HELP!!

Get them, wear them, enjoy them. I think they can be ageless. It's all in your attitude and how you style them
(I'm a huge fan of combat boots too )

Editing to add - I used to ask myself all the time "Is this age appropriate". I finally realized that the real question is this - "Is this ME appropriate". Does whatever "it" is fit my personal style and does it make me feel like "me".

I am older than you and I treated myself to a pair! I absolutely love them! I feel great wearing them, I style and dress age appropriately ! So I say absolutely get them! I definitely agree with the statement "are they me appropriate!"

I think these types of boots can look great at any age. They’ve become a wardrobe staple in my opinion.

I love them! Buy them. I don’t think you will regret doing so but may regret NOT buying them.

Love them! Go for it

I love combat boots. It's how you wear them that makes or breaks a look. Get them!

Thanks everyone!! This is why I love posting in here....you guys are soooo helpful. And I just don’t want to get eye-rolls as I am walking around in these so hearing what you have to say makes me feel better.

I never even thought about it and I’m older than you. I have a similar pair and love them. So comfortable.

Ageless!!! They are just leather boots, not some crazy young trend, they are classic combats!!! ROCK THEM WITH NO WORRIES

I love them! I’m mid 40’s and love wearing combat boots.

I have a pair of combat boots from Cartujano (a Spanish brand, they retailed at $800). They're gorgeous and actually elegant in the way they're cut. I love wearing them tucked into certain leggings/skinny jeans to show off the whole boot when I attempt the "affluent hiker with a cappuccino" look.
