Perhaps I'm just inherently unfashionable(no perhaps about it really!) but shoes are shoes, make them look how you want. I would feel concern at say, an original mechanical innovation being copied without due credit to the inventor, (perhaps because it fascinates me more than Dolce & Gabbana Sunglasses). But really, get up in arms over fake Nikes?!- they're all made by children, get over it!
Good point lol
