Urban Outfitters rip off of my Snake Ear Cuff?

Marty Magic Snake Ear Cuff

A customer emailed me to tell me that Urban Outfitters was selling a copy of my Snake Ear Cuff. I guess this isn’t the first time that Urban Outfitters has been accused of stealing designs from others (see links below) but this is too blatant. It’s one thing to create your own version of an idea but in this case it seems they have just taken a mold from my original work.

Shame on you Urban Outfitters!

You can purchase my ear cuffs and ear wraps at my website or my etsy shop.

Below are some links to other designers who have had problems with Urban Outfitters.
