I can’t seem to remember a shoe that Jeffrey Campbell hasn’t copied from another designer. So, it should come as no surprise that Mr. Campbell is today’s culprit in our Adventures In Copyright series. The designer’s Lief Clog boot has a striking resemblance to Swedish Hasbeens’ High Heeled Jodhpur boot. Both boots are made of leather, both have a buckle, and both have their seams in exactly the same places. The only noticeable difference? Jeffrey Campbell’s is $178 and Swedish Hasbeens’ is about $400. Oh, and the fact that Swedish Hasbeens has been making clogs, and only clogs, since 2006. They may know just a little bit more about the Clog Boot than Jeffrey Campbell.

Not to mention that the Swedish Hasbeens are sustainably made, whereas Jeffrey Campbell… let me guess, China?
And what about the No. 6 clog boots that I see Michelle Williams in all the time? Did No. 6 copy Swedish Hasbeens? Or did they all copy the Olafdaughters clogs that I wore in the late 60s? (they had a store on 6th ave and the corner of 11th street in the west village).
oops…the world is full of copy cats!
Why bring up Jeffrey Campbell now? He is the ABS of shoes. I mean, clogs were not just invented in 2006! This is a stupid post!
