Multiple people on the StyleCaster team rarely wear the same piece of clothing to the office on the same day, but a short while ago, three team members showed up to work in Ganni’s Feminine Buckle Ballerinas. Some were the real deals, while others were dupes. Nevertheless, it’s clear these shoes are coveted. But with the OGs ringing you up for $425, sometimes, you need dupes of the dupes. The most affordable Ganni flats alternatives on the market cost a shockingly low $35, and we’ve got the scoop on where to buy them.

Wild Fable’s Peyton Double Buckle Slingback Flats, available at Target, are true gems. It doesn’t get much better than a $390 price difference for a style of shoe that everyone and their grandmas seem to be rocking—plus, all of the fashion girlies attending fashion weeks across the globe (proof below). But what exactly makes this shoe so popular?

Ganni Feminine Buckle Ballerinas

The Feminine Buckle Ballerinas’ timeless design features a more delicate ballet flat silhouette that contrasts its edgier straps and silver hardware. As soon as you see the thick strap and buckle, you know it’s from Ganni (or Ganni-inspired). But when you can’t cough up over $400 for a pair of shoes (same), your next best choice is to find dupes like the Peyton flats.

You’ll notice the same pointed toe, slingback strap, two silver-tone buckles, and shiny, black material. You could hardly tell the difference between the two! The main difference is that the Ganni flat dupes from Target only come in a versatile black colorway, while the OGs come in 18 options. Of all the colors to have in your closet, though, a simple black flat can match with anything in your closet. Another key difference is that the Target shoes flaunt memory foam insoles to ensure all-day wear.
