The Funky Bootie

Is it or isn’t it? Is it CPK or not? If not, what? It’s so easy to confuse CPK clothes with non-CPK clothes!

Do you recognize this bootie? At first glance, it looks like a regular Outfit #2 or preemie bootie. However, upon closer inspection, it’s not!

The Differences

  • The sole is distinctive.
  • The tie doesn’t thread through the bootie.
  • The opening has a distinctive band that is wider than any CPK booties.

It is very easy to get CPK and other doll clothes confused. As only a portion of CPK clothes are tagged in some way, it’s understandable.

Am I wrong? Is this CPK? I don’t think so. Do you know where this bootie comes from?
