When creating a brand for a product, the first thing to do is register it to protect it from the improper use of third parties.

However, even the largest companies are not able to control all the counterfeit products offered for sale by those who falsely refer to their specific famous logo.

Therefore, it often happens that we see non-original versions of shoes, clothing, and anything else that clearly identifies a referenced famous brand name.

However, sometimes the counterfeit labels are so badly made or absurd that we wonder how it was possible to convince someone to spend money on it!
