Louboutin and the Little Red (Litigious) Shoes – NYTimes.com.
Christian Louboutin shoes sued designer Yves St. Laurent for trademark infringement of its all red shoe soles. This week a federal appellate court will hear arguments in this case most insiders agree it is unlikely the appellate court will rule in favor of the shoe designer. Typically colors are considered function not trademarks. However the United States Supreme Court has ruled that color alone could be a trademark.
How does this affect your business? Are all your trademarks legitimate? Has someone infringed on your trademarks? You never know you might have a case.
