mskim61 Posted January 28, 2008 Share Posted January 28, 2008 I have noticed over the last few years that most shoe companies seem to copy each other on the most popular styles. Louboutin produces soo many great looking heels, but they are just too expensive. So why haven't the other shoe companies come up with their version of his heels. They disappear quickly on Ebay, so there obviously is a market for these shoes. Similar designs for the masses would be a hit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HeelD Posted January 28, 2008 Share Posted January 28, 2008 River Island in the UK had Louboutin style shoes last year IIRC. Some of them looked pretty good. I love to own a pair of Louboutins! Heel-D - Freestyling since 2005 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thighboots Posted January 28, 2008 Share Posted January 28, 2008 A pair of Louboutins would be a dream, I love thier boots! aldo shoes (www.aldoshoes.com) stock some very similar boots and they have most styles in a UK size 9. I have my eye on a pair of these, which are identical to a pair of Louboutins but much cheaper.

Trolldeg Posted February 5, 2008 Share Posted February 5, 2008 Yeah like I said where? There not realy clones with out the 5" heel!! The threadstarter asked for knock-offs, not clones. Louboutin makes more shoes than the Pigalle and Clichy models. He even makes flats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob Posted February 6, 2008 Share Posted February 6, 2008 Banana Shoes (and others such as The Highest Heel) do a style called Hottie, which is a direct copy of the Louboutin Piggal, down to the height, thin set back heel and red sole. You can find them under "Pumps 8" on their site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shrimper Posted February 6, 2008 Share Posted February 6, 2008 Banana Shoes (and others) do a style called Hottie, which is a direct copy of the Louboutin Piggal, down to the height, thin set back heel and red sole. You can find them under "Pumps 8" on their site. AND!! They come in sizes up to US14. Not quite sure of the exchange rate but $100 is still less than the originals.

jo Posted May 31, 2009 Share Posted May 31, 2009 Both Faith and Aldo have several pairs very similar in design to some CL classics. Steve Madden and Oh Dear! and others also play in that market. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
