Primark is selling £10 shoes 'exactly the same' as £480 YSL pair

Lockdown has left many of us watching every penny we spend like never before meaning the time for buying designer items is behind us.

It's for this reason, and many others, high street retailer Primark remains so in demand. It offers customers clothing, homeware and footwear for less.

Over the last couple of years it has also become famed for offering designer-replica items for a fraction of the designer price tag.

At the weekend, one Primark shoppers was quick to share to Twitter that she had spotted a pair of shoes at Primark which she claims are "the exact same shoe" as a pair by designer brand YSL.

One of the main differences, however, is price. Primark's version is £10 whilst YSL's will set you back around £480.

Both pairs of shoes are black heeled sandals with a simple black ankle strap. As Primark doesn't have a website customers can order from, those after a pair will need to visit its stores.

It's important to remember if you're not exempt for medical reasons a face mask should be worn while shopping in any stores according to new Government rules.

Social distancing and safety measures are still in operation across Primark stores too.
