Primark praised for 'classy' £7 summer sandals that 'look like £570 Hermes'

High street giant Primark has impressed people with a £7 pair of summer sandals that look classy and timeless. But while the £7 summer sandals are nice to look at in their own right, fashion fans have been comparing them to a £570 pair from designer heavyweight Hermès.

According to people on the internet, the £7 Primark sandals look similar to Hermès' pricey £570 Oran sandals. The Hermès sandals are one of the design house's most iconic staples, and can instantly elevate a Spring or Summer outfit by adding a touch of timeless elegance.

But with a £570 price tag, the Hermès sandals are out of the price range for many. Now Primark has come to the rescue with an affordable £7 pair of sandals, which people on TikTok say look similar.

TikTok user @primarktrending shared a video showing off Primark’s new sandals, which are available in brown, black, blue, green, pink and lilac. The post was captioned: "Primark beauty.”

Primark’s sandals feature a similar design to Hermès’ Oran Sandals. The bargain retailer’s sandals are available in similar colours and feature a relatively alike ‘H’ shape at the front.

Primark’s shoes are priced at £7, while Hermès’ version would set shoppers back £570. This means shoppers could save around £563 by opting for the dupe, says the ECHO.

We've taken a look at the sandals ourselves, and to be honest, there's a clear difference between them and Hermès. While the Primark sandals are gorgeous in their own right, and will prove a classy Summer staple, there's a clear difference between these and the Hermès pair - but that's what happens when you're paying for a brand logo, versus buying a dupe.

While Primark doesn't offer an online shop, the retailer does have a website where shoppers can see its latest products and check if they're in stock before heading into stores to purchase them. The £7 Primark sandals are in stores now. .
