bootleg merchandise
Unlicensed vendor wares
Bootleg merchandise is counterfeit or unauthorized goods bearing trademarked names, logos, or likenesses without permission—knockoff designer handbags, fake sports jerseys, unlicensed band T-shirts sold outside concert venues.
The term extends from bootleg's broader sense of illegally produced or distributed: She bought bootleg merchandise from a street vendor for a fraction of the retail price.
