    I love Tom's. They are super comfy. Sadly, they're not really winter shoes, at least since I like to wear them without socks. In a few months they'll be back on my feet, though.

    Did anyone else do a double take and start counting on their fingers after that People headline?

    (I'm too dispiritedly conflicted about validating rights of the small business designer/IP owners but mourning an as-a-result-lacerated budget to comment on much else in the article here.)

    Regarding the counterfeiting bust: yes; It is the start of a HUGE crackdown. Bloomberg is on a rampage because counterfeiters don't pay taxes and are illegally importing their items. Not to mention the huge violations of copyrights, patents and IP.

    Here (the US) isn't it legal to buy CGs, but not to sell? They ought to change that. Punish the buyers.

    @femme-bot: I agree! And they do!

    There was a raid on a FedEx type shipping station off Canal St. that was directly associated with several vendors of counterfeit goods. The items were either purchased from a Chinatown storefront and dropped off to be shipped to the customer's home or sold (often as authentic) via eBay.

    All of the packages were confiscated and messages were sent to the addressees that basically said "sorry charlie but you're S.O.L."

    The Trademark Counterfeiting Act of 1984 made it a Federal criminal offense to *knowingly* sell counterfeit items. It's usually a wholesaler who is held liable - if you can find them, if they are solvent, if they can be subject to the jurisdiction of US courts and if he is insured. Not exactly easy which is why NYC is taking this route.

    @LaFemme: Yeah, I guess if it funds things like this it's good to be disbanded, but it seems like a lot of effort has gone in to it more because of the big-name designers complaining all the time. Nobody spends as much time and effort on other causes of drug and human trafficking.

    @JerkoftheMonth: I don't disagree that the designers complaints probably play a part, but I think it is a little off-base to claim "nobody" spends as much time and effort on other causes of drug and human trafficking. Trying to dismantle international drug cartels, human trafficking rings, and stop the funding of terror isn't exactly an easy task, and there are many, many people who are involved in trying to do just that across a wide range of government and private sector. Frankly, the time and effort that it would take to basically shut down Canal street counterfeit shops seems so minimal, I can't believe they didn't do it sooner.
