It’s about time shoes got on the designer parody or fake fashion label trend. Oh, you know what trend we’re talking about — it’s the spoofing of top designer labels by twisting recognized brand logos, such as Givenchy into “Giraunchy,” Celine into “Féline,” Hermès into “Homies,” and, a personal favorite, Comme des Garçons into “Comme des F**kdown.”
Plenty of celebrities have shown that they are fans of the trend. Christina Milian and Ashley Tisdale in the photos below are wearing some of the parodies we just mentioned, but Rihanna is showing that even non-designer labels are fair game.

We don’t think there is a bigger fan of this trend than Cara Delevingne, though — from snapbacks to shirts to beanies, she can’t seem to get enough of her faked fashion labels.

You can see that, so far, the designer parody trend has mostly been on clothing, so we’re excited to show you these slip-ons that are finally in on the fashion joke! Check out the “Praduh” shoes, a special collaboration between Solestruck and a new clothing label interestingly named “Made in Hell-A.”
Made in Hell-A x Solestruck Women’s “Praduh” Slip-Ons, $109.95 / Made in Hell-A x Solestruck Men’s “Praduh” Slip-Ons, $109.95
It’s pretty cool that they made versions for both women and men, huh? Do you want to order a pair for you and your man?
We wonder what they would do to our other favorites, such as Christian Louboutin and Giuseppe Zanotti.
