Primark shoppers left totally divided over new slipper-style flats – so do you think they’re the ‘ugliest shoe ever’?
PRIMARK shoppers are totally divided over the brand-new slipper-style flats – but what do you think of them?
Birkenstock clogs, also known as Birkenstock Bostons, have proved to be hugely popular recently, with many shoppers desperate to get their hands on the comfy shoes.
And now Primark has released their own version, but shoppers aren’t totally convinced.
The much-loved chain recently took to social media to show off the new “Birkenstock-style dupe” shoes, but while some Primark fans are loving them, not everyone else is as keen.
In fact, many shoppers have described them as the ‘ugliest shoes’ ever.
Posting on TikTok on the official @primark, account, the chain shared the clip showing off the new shoes with the caption ‘Spotted in store.’
Primark claimed: “The comfiest shoe has landed.”
The new mule-like flat shoes are strikingly similar to the iconic Birkenstock clogs, with a strap buckle detail.
The slip-on shoes even have a soft fur inside and can be dressed up or down, meaning they will be perfect as warm slippers or comfortable for running errands.
The Primark clip has clearly shocked many, as it has quickly amassed a whopping 66,900 views.
It has 1,791 likes, 61 comments, 71 saves and 14 shares.
But social media users were divided over the new shoes – while some loved them and were desperate to nab themselves a pair, others weren’t impressed and were eager to describe them as ‘horrible’ and ‘ugly.’
One person said: “I want these.”
Another shopper added: “I need something like that.”
A third gushed and commented: “I love these so much.”
At the same time, many shoppers weren’t keen on the new-in shoes.
One Primark fan begged: “PRIMARK PLEASE NO.”
A second claimed: “THEY’RE SO UGLY.”
Whilst someone else noted: “They’re horrible.”
As well as this, many TikTok users were quick to hail the new shoes as ‘the ugliest shoes’.
One user shared: “The ugliest shoes have landed.”
Another agreed: “The ugliest shoe, what on earth are those?”
Whilst another shopper commented: “The ugliest shoe has launched.”
