Eik Ottosen, the hot Danish model has created Rubber Duck shoes. His Los Drillos come in just about every color and are super comfy and affordable. Eik is a Buddhist who believes in corporate karma, which is probably why his shoes are made in Bangladesh, where he started a work-at-home program for women with children. Girls are going crazy over Eik and his slip on shoes. And for good reason too.

I like this. It’s a little like TOMS Shoes (http://www.tomsshoes.com/) in terms of design. And both are doing a good cause to society while doing it.

Yes the slippers are fine. In fact, they are blunt copies of slippers that have been popular in Spain and South of France for a couple of centuries now. I know, time does not have the same weight depending on where you were born. These traditionnal slippers made in Spain or France are manufactured in small production units by workers who need their jobs badly. I appreciate the fact that the featured slippers are made in Bangladesh and for a good cause. But times are hard for all of us. Are we really saying here that copies are more interesting than originals, and that Bangladesh workers are more help-worthy than the Spanish or French working class?
How ethical is this all?
