Paragraph 1
Sportswear giant Adidas has lost a courtroom
over a perceived infringement of its trademark three-stripe logo. Adidas lodged a
against the American luxury fashion
Thom Browne, which uses a four-stripe logo on its clothes. Adidas claimed the four stripes were too
to its three stripes and filed a lawsuit. It attempted to claim more than $7.8 million in damages. However, a
in a Manhattan court decided in Thom Browne's
. It declared that the four stripes did not infringe on Adidas' logo or
. Jurors decided that
were unlikely to confuse the two brands, as they were
of distinguishing between three and four
stripes.
