Jeffrey Campbell’s response to ACNE and Burberry:
Thought I’d post the rest of the boots I didn’t get round to last time.
The thigh high boots are faux leather and less than $100 and will satisfy my thigh crave. If something more stunning comes along *cough* Barneys/Bergdorf/Jeffreys winter sale *cough cough* I’ll re-evaluate.
On another note, LF is coming up with a version of the ACNE wedge ‘skater’ boot. The first post I did wearing them is here. Of course, nothing compares to having the real deal, but being mine are a bit tight on me, nothing also compares to comfort and getting a similar version that fits better?
When they hit stores I’ll try them on and report back which way I’ll go.

Just emailed LF to see what the deal was with the “Alexa” Wedge Booties. I actually like the fact that the platform seems smaller than the real ones. I’m 5’8″ and I don’t need to be looking like gigantor in shoes. 😉
Anna says:
Those knock offs are SO UGLY! omg!
Jessica says:
What a cool find–I love finding a look-a-like or even something to just satisfy a craving. 😉 Thanks for sharing!
Damsels says:
hmm i hate to say it but i wouldnt really want the knock offs because i think he should have done his reinvention or sometihng so it looks too much like he copied …. yo are so lucky to have the real an thefake .. i am jsut so jealous
Karen says:
I agree in that the Jeffrey Campbells don’t have that same arch height as ACNE, but I think they are worth looking at (at least for me if I feel that I can’t deal with the ACNE size any more).
As far as knock offs like this, it’s really an each to his own kind of thing really. Heck, if they work well enough (like the open lace up boot knock offs), then why not? ; – especially if looking for something budget or wedge height friendly.
just my 2 pennies/cents worth!!
