I have personally seen many famous brand counterfeits around in HK, like LV toilet paper holder, Burberry pattern T-shirt with Ralph Lauren Polo logos on it….

I think these manufacturer did spend some time and innovation on their products (altho it is illegal)

But a LV/Burberry soccer ball? really out of my imagination…

It always popup to my mind, if they have such an innovation and skills of making a counterfeits product which they claims it looks so real or even better, why don’t they spend the affort on something new and better?

Of coz, with a country next to us that even Eggs or Soybean source can be fake, what else can I ask for?

Just my 2 cents….
