Biker boots!

Go for your boots. Bravo! Personally, they're too heavy for me but I'm totally up for anyone buying/wearing whatever they want. Who cares what others think?! Go for it, girl.

Icanhandthemback, love those boots.

I bought a pair a few years ago when I was your age and got lots of compliments. Go for it!

Go for it. I follow this lady on Instagram @jeanwoods7 She is a lot older than you and she looks fabulous. She has great style and is not afraid to show it! Life is too short!

I wear my Doc Martens with pride. I am lucky that I can also fit into the children's ones so I have a patent leather red pair and a purple pair. My favourite ones are these paired up with black skinny jeans which have the same roses on the thigh.
When I was younger, I wouldn't have had the confidence to wear anything that might draw attention. I am making up for it now. I don't tend to wear mini-skirts, my low cut tops are decent enough to be worn in front of the Pope and I make most of my statements with bright patterns or unusual stuff. It isn't about being an extrovert or shouting, "Look at me," it is about brightening up my life with colour.

Love your boots icanhandthemback! Good on you girl! ???

Dont bother about what anyone thinks, or says. Go for it!

65? You’re only a girl!! I’m 61, and have been wearing DMs since becoming a Slade fan in 1971. Nooooo intention of ever stopping.

Oh YellowMellow - best make sure the outfit is a right colour clash or she will look her age in biker boots

Ahhh, thank you for all the comments. These are the ones I’ve ordered! What do you think?

Chrisks : I have got those you have posted, I bought mine last year, mine have slightly different buttons and red laces they are so comfortable. Yes I am over 60 and wear what I like, the only thing I have given up is mini skirts otherwise anything goes.

I live in biker boots and Gabor are so comfortable. I have more boots than shoes and love them. The older you get the more you can please yourself. You are never too old to wear what you like.

Can’t see why not? I am 72 have a pair of Fiorentini and Baker biker looking short boots

I am 75, and wear black biker type boots with a small heel.

Wear with leggings tucked in.

Fabulous! Good choice! I would wear those! ??

And check that they are leather and will give ...mine weren' t and they were impissible to wear. Finally sold them on years later.

I like these ones

I'm 68 and I wear biker boots, go for it. The perks of getting older you no longer care what other people think. I have always had a longing for a pair of Doc Martin's but very expensive.

I’m fancying a pair of biker boots. I’m 65 and maybe too old to rock this style! What do you think? The pair I fancy are Gabor ones!

Why should you bother what others think? Out of curiosity I Googled: Grandmother in Biker Boots, a plethora of images came up, so I just chose the first. Doesn't she look fabulous?

Are those biker,boots ? They just look like blue suede ankle,boots to me.

Go for it - who cares what anyone else thinks! I love biker boots, but unfortunately the ones I have at the moment are starting to get a bit old and tired (much like their owner!) They are so comfy though. Last year I bought a pair of leopard-print Dr Marten-style boots from Next and I love those too!

I’m still wearing over the knee black suede boots with studs up the back! They’re flat-heeled so comfy and make any outfit look great. Bought years ago for too much money at Russell and Bromley. I will continue to wear them for as long as I can walk! Age should never be a barrier for what you wear. It’s how you feel in those clothes and what makes you feel good. So go for those biker boots! ?

The boots look great and Gabor are so comfortable. Win, win!

Just out of interest I was looking at Dr M bikers on E.bay and the prices were amazing cheap 1/3 of what they originally sell

These are my latest boots, Gabor, really comfy, not sure if they are biker boots!!

If I had nice little size 4 feet I might be tempted, but on me proper biker boots would look like a pair of mega beetle-crushers.

Spangler I have always thought biker boots to be thick soled, laced or buckled up the sides and worn on the outside of trousers. Sure these are biker boots in the picture? I will need to check biker magazines for what is the norm.

^No! That link doesn't show 'biker boots'.
It's loads of different types of women's boots.^

Spangler, those look like Chelsea boots.

Spangler, the boots in the photo aren't biker boots

Have I caused some ambiguity? The lady in the photo is wearing boots, I googled "Grandmothers in biker boots" I didn't think to check if they were actually biker boots. How remiss of me.

The other link will show you biker boots, but you have to first click on "Ladies," then click on "Ladies Boots" and finally "Ladies Biker Boots." There are at least three Biker Boot Styles, one I have put up an image of,
