New Era Knocks Off Louis Vuitton
We love The Satchel for his ability to catch things like this. Apparently New Era has decided to copy the iconic Louis Vuitton print for a new like of signature caps. The bootleg print is by Olako’aka, which means we know who to blame for being unoriginal and stealing from the Marc. The best part is Hyperbeast’s quote on the subject, “This version emulates a LV pattern so this satisfies those with a luxurious taste as well as those seeking traditional cultural satisfaction.” So basically, we know it’s a bootleg, you know it’s a bootleg, but since Jacobs refuses to create a line of hats to match the Chinatown knock-off you got her for Christmas, this is all we can give you.

Aloha, fashion indie,
Please check your facts….. New era manufactured the hats and it was created by people who have an appreciation for LV and the damier print. Further more, the hand cut art work within your so called bootleg print is called olakoaka which is a graphic representation of coral which is also backed by NOAA as the offical print for the year if the reef….

Reply to K U H A OAll aloha….
Nothin you said its really necessary to the article. It is a New Era hat that has a ripped off print on it and who really cares about New Era anymore anyways its a dying/dead trend to most people.
Reply to Corey MoranTotally agree. New Era is for left over hip hop rock star wannabes who feel special paying $50 for a baseball cap. It’s the ghetto version of the trucker hat and it’s been out for about as long Fresh Prince’s been white.
