Birkenstock are a much-loved designer brand of sandals that are perfect to wear during the holiday season, however, they can be a bit of a financial investment. If you’re looking for some new summer shoes to throw into your suitcase that won’t sting your bank account, Primark has released a range of sandals that are almost identical to the designer Birkenstocks.
Primark is offering three different styles of slides that are similar to Birkenstock's Madrid, Gizeh and Arizona shoes. Spotted by Primark ‘obsessed’ TikTok vlogger, Primarkxo, the fashion lover compared the brand's £6 Buckle Strap Footbed Sandals to Birkenstock's £55 Madrid sandals.
This simple single-strap model has gone on to become a firm fashion favourite. The Primark dupe comes in three colours - Black, Silver and Blue. The German shoe also comes in three colours - Black, White and Dark Brown.
The Madrid is the oldest member of the Birkenstock family of models, and the upper is made from the skin-friendly, hard-wearing synthetic material Birko-Flor, while the footbed is lined with suede. In the video, which has over 13k views, the fashion vlogger compares £7 Slip On Sandals from Primark to the Gizeh Birko-Flor style Birkenstock that costs £65.
The Primark sandal would save you £58 and comes in two colours - Gold and White. The Gizeh also comes in Gold and Silver. A pair of £65 Arizona Birkenstocks were also compared to Primark's £7 Double Buckle Strap Slides - as they both feature a double buckle.
The Primark Arizona dupes come in multiple colours - Black, White, Silver, Tan, Burnt Orange and Pink. There are many different styles of the Arizona shoe designed by Birkenstock in a range of colours, with some of them costing more than £100.
While the quality of the Birkenstocks may be more durable, if you're looking for a similar stylish pair for the a fraction of the price for the summer, then the Primark ones could be the way to go.
