Finding a pair of trendy trainers that justify the purchase (without having to skip your daily £4 matcha latte) seems an almost impossible task. But, if you're looking to stay up to date on the latest fashion trends, a high street dupe may be the perfect solution for you - and your bank account.
High street fave Pull&Bear has made a pair of shoes almost-identical to the Wales Bonner Adidas Sambas, in the form of the Retro Trainers. Like the viral designer pair, the dupe features exactly the same unique similar colour combinations (including the iconic silver pair), flipped tongue and gum sole retro detailing, meaning they'd be perfect if you missed out (read: couldn't afford) the original Wales Bonner x Adidas Samba shoes when the collection first dropped.
You can pair Pull&Bear's Adidas Samba dupes with wide leg jeans and a slinky crop top for a casual spring-to-summer look, or paired with a jersey midi dress and sunglasses for a sunny holiday ensemble. Either way, we can guarantee you'll wonder where this cool sneaker has been your entire life.
If the Pull&Bear rendition of the Wales Bonner X Adidas Samba's aren't exactly your cup of tea, or you'd prefer to keep it simple and stick to finding a pair of shoes similar to the OG Adidas Sambas, then you're in luck. We found some excellent Adidas Samba dupes across the web from M&S, Stradivarius and more.
Embrace the retro vibes without spending an extortionate amount of money, and find your new shoe staple for the warmer months ahead. Shop the Wales Bonnes x Adidas Samba dupe below, plus more Adidas Samba dupes.

We'd argue these are scarily similar in design to the original Adidas Sambas, but half the price. They come in three other colours if nude just isn't your vibe.
