Information reaching Kossyderrickent has it that Trump stole Christian Louboutin red soled sneakers idea.
Donald Trump may have risked a lawsuit by shilling gold sneakers to help pay his mounting legal fees, a CNN analyst said Monday.
Maria Cardona explained that, as a “shoe diva,” she knows the ins and outs of copyright law when it comes to high-end brands such as Christian Louboutin.
“When I looked at this, I said, this is yet another lawsuit in the making,” Cardona told Wolf Blitzer, specifically referencing the red sole the former president’s new shoes have.
Over the weekend, he debuted gold sneakers he’s selling for up to $400 a pair.. They have already reportedly sold out.
The gaudy kicks are intending to help him raise cash to fund massive legal costs, which include the fraud case damages and another $83 million he owes after being found liable for defaming writer E. Jean Carroll.
He also has millions in legal fees associated with his upcoming legal trials.
Cardona warns the sneakers might take him back to court. Louboutin used an assistant’s red nail polish to design the shoe in 1993 and has fought for rights to the red sole in several trademark lawsuits around the world. The design has since expanded from women’s heels to red-soled shoes for both men and women, including men’s sneakers and high-tops.
CNN political commentator Maria Cardona also believes that Trump is risking a lawsuit with the shoes and called the former president a “fraudster” because of it.
