Levi v Ralph Lauren

9 months ago 25th Jul 10:05

Levi has filed a lawsuit against Polo Ralph Lauren.

The company claims that the designer brand copied it’s trademark 'arcuate' pocket stitching.

In federal court documents obtained by WWD Levi clamed:” Polo Ralph Lauren has in the past and continues to manufacture, source, market and/or sell clothing that displays stitching designs that are confusingly similar to [Levi Strauss & Co.'s] ‘arcuate’ trademark.”

The company is seeking a court injunction to prevent Polo Ralph Lauren from using the design again. They also want compensation for financial losses as well as other unspecified damages.

Levi has the trademark design protected by law since 1873, which makes it one of the oldest clothing trademarks in the US.

Polo Ralph declined to comment on the lawsuit.
