You already know these knock-off brands were just asking to be shamed.
If there is one fundamental truth about retail, it is that for every great product on the market, there are inevitably a number of awful knockoff brands trying to con customers out of their hard-earned money. Sometimes you can tell when something is a knockoff right away; other times, you won't even realize you're wearing one until you're out in public.
People love to seize every opportunity they get to make fun of these poorly produced knockoff brands online. There are numerous groups on Reddit where millions of users discuss and joke about the best and strangest knockoff brands available.
Although knockoff products may be less expensive than real brands, sometimes it seems like they aren't even trying to look distinct. You know, at least try your best if you want to fool someone.
We've gathered a collection of some of the most bizarre knockoff designs that have been called out on Twitter by a certain account called Off Brand Designs. This Twitter account showcases these strange products that are attempting to mimic the real thing.
