Wear to ensure you get noticed, then make the news

This tasteless Apple-branded shoe may not even manage to lift an eyebrow over at the Mac maker’s legal department, though Cupertino is known to have sued for even less resemblance to its brand’s logo.

Featuring a partially bitten Apple frame, a leaf, as well as a stalk, the Apple boot is not something emerging from Jony Ive’s laboratory.

Sadly, we can’t say who the makers are, but surely they did some painstaking research to find the best way to spike up those sales.

I wouldn’t bet on Apple’s lawyers putting their foot into this one. Chances are they’ll just have a good laugh (if they even see it), then move on to more important business, such as fulfilling Steve Jobs’ dream of killing the Google Android operating system piece by piece.
