Look at all of the knockoffs of the Ugg boots in all of the stores.
Now I am seeing knockoffs of the MukLuks.
I have real Crocs, but my mom has the Walmart knockoffs, she says there is a difference. Mine are more comfortable.
My daughter wants all these famous brands but what she doesn't know is a lot of the time I purchase her clothes at Walmart or JC Penneys and they look just as good as the name brand.
I remember in high school all the well-to-do kids were wearing Abercrombie&Fitch, McAlister's, Adidas, Nike, etc. But I had to wear brands like Jordache, No Boundaries, Faded Glory, Airwalk (after it became a Payless brand), and I got compliments on my clothes and people asked where I bought them. I usually told them "In the mall." What they didn't know was I paid $14.95 for my jeans while they paid $40-60 for theirs.
Sometimes the knockoffs look better than the original.
