A pair of $15 Kmart sandals is making rounds on social media due to their striking similarity to a much more expensive $199 designer pair.
Kmart’s Chunky Fashion Sandal and the ritzy Dr Martens Blaire Hydro Sandal both feature a triple front band detail, side buckle, open-toe design, and back strap.
The pair of Kmart sandals is being dubbed by fashionistas as “your next wardrobe staple” due to its chic style and affordability.
Canberra-based affordable fashion blogger “The Genevieve” shared a series of photos of the $15 pair on Instagram stating how excited she is to wear the sandals all spring.

Your next wardrobe staple
The resemblance between Kmart’s $15 sandals and Dr. Martens Blaire Hydro Sandal is uncanny — with only a few minor differences, the pairs are almost indistinguishable.
However, the Kmart option is by far the best choice for shoppers on a tight budget.
The chic sandals are best paired with a sundress, shorts, and a top or skirt and can keep you in style whether you’re in the city or on the coast.
The shoes can be purchased in-stores or online.
High-end sandals
The lush Dr. Martens pair, which costs thirteen times more than the now popular Kmart's sandals, features the brand’s signature yellow mid-sole stitching.
The sandals also feature a padded collar for comfort, a lightweight ripple sole, and a sturdy, durable Goodyear welt.
Dr. Martens Blaire Hydro Sandals can be purchased in retailers such as The Iconic.

How about you? Would you consider buying high-end shoes purely for their brand name or would you rather get a pair of knock-offs for a fraction of the price?
