Louboutin could lose red,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]
A New York judge has refused to prevent a competitor from offering red-soled shoes such as these stilettos by Christian Louboutin,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]. Patent and Trademark Office,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]. The judge said the office was "perhaps swayed in part by the widespread recognition the red sole had already attained" as the shoes became a favorite of well-heeled famous clients,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych].
The trademark notes that the color red is claimed as a feature of the mark,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], which consists of a lacquered red sole on footwear.
"Awarding one participant in the designer shoe market a monopoly on the color red would impermissibly hinder competition among other participants,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]," Marrero wrote. District Judge Victor Marrero Harley Irwin Lewin,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], a lawyer for Louboutin,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], said he was disappointed with the ruling and believes it was contrary to trademark law.
"He has decided that in the fashion industry,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], people shouldn't own a trademark that consists of a single colour regardless of its use and regardless of the fact the trademark has achieved trademark status with the public,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]," Lewin said. "We made a point of saying it isn't on an article of fashion. It's on the bottom of a shoe."
Lewin said he believes he can appeal the ruling prior to trial but will not decide until speaking with the company,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych].
At the appeals level,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], he added: "I think we win hands down."
Jyotin Hamid,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], a lawyer for Yves Saint Laurent,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], said the company was pleased with the ruling.
"No designer should be able to monopolize a color in fashion,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]," he said. alone and envious competitors and black-market shoe makers are eager to capitalize on the success,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], the judge said.
