These £49 M&S trainers are just like Meghan Markle's sell-out Veja pair

Meghan Markle may often attend events in sky-high £500 Aquazzura shoes, but she’s also a fan of more affordable - and low-key - footwear.

The Duchess of Sussex, 38, was pictured wearing a pair of trainers by trendy, sustainable French brand Veja last year while in Australia with husband Prince Harry.

The £115 shoe sold out almost instantly, making clear Meghan’s selling power.

Fortunately, Marks and Spencer has restocked a lookalike pair of trainers that are similar to the ones Meghan wears - and less than half the price.

The Leather Lace-Up Trainers, which have rave reviews online, look almost identical to Meghan’s Veja ‘Esplar’ trainers she wore on the royal tour of Australia.

The black and white Veja trainers cost £115, where as the Marks and Spencer pair are a fraction of the price at £49.50 and feature the near-identical black ‘V’ style detailing.

The M&S pair also come in a metallic silver colourway and are available in half sizes.

Meghan has been pictured in the cool Veja pair a number of times and it was reported that after she wore them in Australia last year, online searches for the Veja V-10s skyrocketed, shooting up by 118%.

And when Marks and Spencer launched their similar trainers just after, they sold out instantly and received five-star reviews online.

One shoe lover wrote: “I love them! Absolutely love these. Very comfortable... but also on the silver they can be a bit dressy too. I have wide feet and they’re absolutely fine.”

Another said that she was impressed she didn’t have to break them in, writing: “What can I say? I just love these. I got them, wore them for a full day without need of breaking in. They are so soft.”

Now the brand has restocked the shoes, we predict they will fly off the shelves in no time.
