I'm the OP and I'm 24 years old. Do you guys think they are ugly? I liked them!

And yeah I was thinking of wearing them as house shoes or like to a tailgate, not out for dinner.

I wouldn't think "pretentious," I'd think ugly, and probably arrested development.

I think the only time it's socially acceptable to wear stuff with your college logo/name as an adult, is either at some kind of school event (reunion, sports game), or when you're sweating. I.e, an old t-shirt to the gym. A baseball hat for when you're gardening or going for a run. A sweatshirt for raking the leaves.

Other than that... no.

I would have no idea what school was referenced and I would know that we have very different style and taste.

Lame, ugly and very wasteful.

I'd think that the only sentient being that would wear those would have to be a HYP undergrad alum. Anyone else, fall back...

I'd also look at the shoes and try to figure out what the C stood for. Colgate would not even register on my radar.

I'd expect you to be wearing a smoking jacket and carrying a cigar while walking your spaniel over the moors.

If you were in your early twenties I'd think "someday she's going to look back and laugh at herself". If you were older than 25 I'd think "she's still living in her college days, time to move on and grow up".

+1. I would think your development was arrested at age 20.

Maybe to a football tailgate. Otherwise no way. And I'm a fellow Patriot League preppy.

Those look like slippers. If you wore them in public, I'd think: "why is she wearing her college slippers out to the store/work/etc??"

Being a proud Colgate alumna, I want to buy these shoes:

My friend says it's douchey and pretentious though. I do have a tendency to dress in a way that would be called "preppy" (I went to Colgate, go figure), but I don't think I'm pretentious. How would you judge a woman wearing loafers with her college logo on them?
