Shoppers who like the style of the high-end boots can save on a similar look
Primark is selling ‘stylish’ £18 boots that resemble a £325 alternative. The high-street fashion retailer is known for offering affordable clothing and footwear, and the store’s autumn range is now on the shelves. Among the styles, shoppers can find a pair of faux leather boots that resemble a high-end design.
Primark’s £18 Faux Leather Block Heel Ankle Boots look similar to Russell and Bromley’s £325 Infinity Block Heel Ankle Boot. While it should be noted that there are differences between the boots, Primark’s more affordable offering could impress fans of the high-end style who want a similar luxury look for a lower price.
Both ankle boots are offered in a classic black colour. They share several design features, including the block heel, square toe, and zip fastening. Despite these similarities, the boots differ in construction, as the pricier pair are made from black Nappa leather.
Primark describes its offering as ‘black faux leather ankle boots with low block heel and squared toe’. Available in-store and online, the boots range in size from UK 3 to UK 8, although some sizes are currently out of stock for click-and-collect customers.
The full product description reads: “Step out in style with these black PU block heel ankle boots. Made from smooth leather-look PU, they offer a sleek, polished finish and a modern squared toe.
“The low block heel adds comfort for all-day wear, while the inner zip makes them easy to slip on and off. A simple yet stylish addition to any wardrobe, they bring modern style and practical comfort to your shoe collection.”
Russell and Bromley writes that its boots are made in Italy, featuring black Nappa leather, a leather lining, and a 6cm heel height. Available in store and online, the shoes range in size from UK 3 to UK 9.
The full product description says: “Streamlined and versatile, this is Infinity. A classic design elevated with impeccable craftsmanship and a comfortable block heel.”
While shoppers will have their own preferences, and both styles are likely to prove popular, shoppers who opt for the Primark boots can save themselves over £300. Alternatively, Primark offers a selection of ankle boots which could impress shoppers who prefer a different style.
Another option could be the £18 Block Heel Stretch Ankle Boots. Primark says: “These ankle boots come with a block heel, a stretch material around the ankle and a round toe.” There’s also the £20 Rita Ora Sock Chelsea Boots. Primark says: “Black Chelsea boots with sock-style knit ankle and chunky lug sole.”
Or, for shoppers looking for knee-high boots, Primark offers the £26 Paula Echevarría Knee High Heeled Boots. Primark says: “Knee high faux leather boots with heels, zip fastenings and square toes.”
