word up. if no one's making any money off it, then they won't bother. and file sharing isn't really the same issue as buying pirated dvds - no one's profiting off it.
not many people from the states selling fake kicks probably because they don't see the market in it and/or the lack of manufacturing facilities means that the fakes would have to be imported anyway. much easier to import fake purses (bigger market, easier to ship) to sell on the corner than shoes in boxes you have to sell online. i mean, you do see some fake stuff, but it's usually bargain basement fakes, like basketball shoes that look like n**e's, but say Air on them instead. And no one's going to crack down on this because the product doesn't have the name or the swish and it's only the real destitute that wear them.
the US has tough laws regarding this kind of stuff, but if you've ever been to Canal Street in Manhattan, then you know fakes are easily found and readily available, but why trade a tough market when an easy one is staring you in the face?
