LOUBOUTIN COPYCATS
Shoe designer, Christian Louboutin, is fighting back. When he started out, he tried to distinguish himself by painting his designer shoes' soles with red nail polish. The red soles on his shoes that became his signature look are now being copied constantly and he is fed up. He has applied for trademarks in the US and UK to put an end to companies copying his look. Meanwhile, he is tied up in a legal battle over this issue with the shoe label Oh…DEER! He has stated that people identify his designer shoes by their red soles and he is absolutely right. How about some new ideas people?
