One of Target’s best designer-inspired items just got a refresh for summer, and it’s already on sale so that shoppers can stock up. Fans are already buying multiple pairs of the Helena Whipstitch Slide Sandals, calling them "so cute and comfy." Of course, when you see the Target slides, they’ll remind you of the iconic Hermès Oran sandal with the unmistakable H-shaped silhouette.
But rather than spend $760 (or more, depending on the color and materials) shoppers can get the Helena Whipstitch Slide Sandals for only $20. The sandal normally costs $25, but Target is currently running a 20% off deal on women’s shoes when you shop in-store or online.

We're no stranger to an Hermès lookalike at Target, but these faux-leather slide-ons are the perfect warm-weather flat, with the neutral tan color making it an instant wardrobe staple. You can wear them to work, out to dinner, or during your summer vacation. They’ll hardly take up any room in your bag if you just need to keep an easy shoe with you as a back-up.
The whipstitch accent makes the Helena sandals look a bit more trendy than a similar shoe Target is well known for. That said, if you prefer the sandal *without* the contrast stitching detail, the Nina A New Day Slide Sandals are also on sale, marked down from $20 to $16 right now.

But if you’re like us and already have the Nina Slide in multiple colors, the Helena version is the ultimate score. Some people even seem to like how the Helena slides fit more than the Nina version. Giving the Helena slide 5/5 stars, a Target customer said, "this pair is much more comfortable than the solid colors for some reason. Grab ‘em while you can!"
As mentioned earlier, it’s also an item that people are buying multiples of so that they have a back-up ready to go. One shopper said they "ordered a second pair" because they already knew they would "wear out the first pair."
"Absolutely love them," said another customer. "They’re a cute dupe for H brand with a little whipstitch for visual interest. They are comfortable and I feel like a great neutral I’ll wear all summer." One more customer called them a "perfect shoe."
While you might not need to worry about the Helena Whipstitch Slide Sandals staying in stock, you should pick them up at the current sale price before it’s gone. The sale ends on May 12, so act fast on our favorite Target finds for summer.
