Adidas loses court row over stripe design with Thom Browne
Adidas has lost a court case after suing fashion designer Thom Browne over a stripe design.
The lawsuit alleged that Browne’s use of four stripes in his designs was too similar to the sportswear company’s three-stripe logo, seeking $867,225 (£711,244) in potential licensing fees and more than $7m (£5.7m) in damages.
Browne’s team argued that the two were unlikely to be confused as the brands had a different number of stripes.
The New York designer was seen attending court proceedings wearing shorts, pairing them with socks adorned with the four stripes.
