isn't that what he did originally
but not like nail polish, but lacquer?

i still prefer loubs. i can tell the difference between the real and the fake, despite both having red soles.
and the reals are heaps nicer..

I think the main difference is the comfort- obviously CL's shoes are more comfortable and good quality compared to the fake ones that use cheap bases, soles etc

Yeah it was :) He thought they needed something.

It is just the mass-producing of shitty ones that gets me.

Ehhh I just thought it was important for people to know... some people get sort of shirty about these discussions :O

Ahahaha
I find it amusing how someone can consider you the first one to get offended on a board... It is typing, essentially emotion is questionable.
I said bitching session, which is heavily implied through words.

I don't mind people doing their own red soles. It's other people making money out of someones design that irritates me.

You'd better be ready to be irritated constantly, because pretty much everything gets knocked off these days.

I don't like all the designs and brands, so it is doubtful I would notice ;)

I worry about a lot of important things.
Hence why I was social justice leader, am a vegan, an active advocator of human rights, a regular st.vinnies door knocker etc... and the student body, in those mock awards, gave me and one of my besties 'most likely to do humanitarian aid'.

Just because I care about artistic ripping off, and think that I feel like making a post about it under "fashion", doesn't mean I don't have my head tuned in to more pressing issues.

It was an interesting discussion though :)
