Primark shoppers 'need' £16 dupe trainers that look like £95 New Balance version

Primark shoppers have spotted another bargain in stores that gives them a designer look for a fraction of the price.

The high street giant is known for offering dupes of high-end brands at budget prices, and one of the latest offerings in the shoe section has caught the eye of shoppers. Primark showed off a pair of trainers on its Instagram page, describing them as "the most versatile trainers you need right now", that have a price tag of just £16.

Not only do the trainers come at a bargain, but they also bear a resemblance to another brand with a much heftier price tag, the Liverpool Echo reports. Some savvy shoppers have pointed out that Primark's shoes look like New Balance trainers - but a similar pair from the brand available on ASOS, which sports a white top and black soles just like the dupe, would set you back £95.
