Dr Martens are undoubtedly one of the most popular footwear brands out there, with dozens of those stopped for our weekly Steal Their Style feature donning the iconic yellow stitching. But we all know they don’t come cheap, with a pair often coming with a three figure pricetag.
However, one savvy shopper has spotted a ‘dupe’ of the best-loved Dr Martens Blaire sandals for £75 less.
TikTok content creator, SadieQueen88, shared her bargain buy on the video sharing app and has sent fashion fans rushing to pick up the look-a-like summer shoe.

In the video, which has a quarter of a million views, Sadie unboxed the pair of shoes on screen as she explained: “I won’t gatekeep. I should, but I’m not going to.”
The Scottish mum, who works as a nurse, was so excited about the apparent dupe, that she’s ordered a second pair, and is even contemplating a third.
She said: “For the summer coming and if you want to save yourself £100, look at them. Oh my god, they’re perfect.
“They’re dead soft so you don’t need to break them in like a DM. They’ve got a fake Air Wair tag. I’m absolutely over the moon, they’re perfect.”
The roman style sandals are available to buy on the TikTok shop, and cost £23.98 a pair, down from £39.99 in a flash sale. They're over £75 cheaper than the £99 Dr Marten version.
Sadie added: “They’ll go with everything that I’ve got for the summer, so there’s your DM dupes. I’ve got the ox blood coming too. My auntie and three pals have asked me to order them a pair. They are exactly the same as DMs.”
With three colours to choose from, black white and ox blood, shoppers have been rushing to get a pair for themselves, with one commenting: “Just ordered a pair!”
Another added: “Now they look comfy!” while a third wrote: “Just ordered! Love docs but soooo expensive and having 6 pairs of various boots, a dupe is good.”
There are plenty of other black strappy sandals online that have a similar profile to the Dr Martens version, too. M&S have a pair of Leather Ankle Strap Flat Sandals for £45, described as 'soft', 'stylish' and 'just like Dr Martens' by shoppers.
