Sneaker bootleggers are working overtime!


If you thought the Olympic opener was impressive, wait until you see what people has managed to pull by the way of knock of nikes! I know they've been preying on Nike's Sole (play on words) for a while now, but did they really have to hit Kanye before his joints officially dropped? Only $150? You say sizes 9-12? WOW! I created a little graphic as to how I think Kanye felt when he was informed of the...what I'll call, capitalism at it's finest. On the upside, I suppose this is the most sincerest form of flattery.

Prada's, Gucci's, Ato's, and even Common Project sneakers also have imitators, but those particular shoes have been out for years, if not decades, so it's not as much of a shocker.
