Ridiculous Knock-Off Brands That Somehow Made It Onto Store Shelves
While plenty of people are after the latest and greatest products from their favorite brands, not everyone can afford the exorbitant price tags that often accompany them. As a result, some of us are more than happy to settle for substitute goods. But while some knock-offs are identical to the real thing, others fail so miserably that all you can do is laugh. From ridiculous dollar store items to restaurant chains that could have benefitted from some originality, here are the most hilarious rip-offs that the internet has to offer.
1. Peepi Socks
While the color scheme and logo may seem pretty on point, the text sure isn't! When the uploader's girlfriend first placed an order for these socks online, she probably expected something a little more believable.
2. Just Do It
While Nike's slogan may be "Just Do It," we're pretty sure the company didn't want you to do this. Clearly, not a lot of thought was put into this knock-off backpack. But hey, if your name happens to be Mike, then at least you'll never struggle to locate your backpack again!
3. Cross Branding
Here, we see a rare crossover between two global brands: Garfield the cat and the ever-popular mobile game Angry Birds. Whoever came up with the expression "kill two birds with one stone" probably didn't have this in mind.
4. Direct-To-Streaming
Yes, you read that correctly — a knock-off Superman movie that's actually available to stream from Amazon Prime right now! So if you ever get tired of hearing the original Superman tale, consider watching this lesser-known version, where a man named Raja prays to "Lord Hanuman" and receives superpowers.
