Adidas has taken legal action against Australian fashion label White Fox over the use of a four-stripe design on clothing.
The dispute involves White Fox, a label based in Sydney, and the German sportswear brand. Adidas is seeking an order preventing White Fox from continuing to sell the items at the centre of the case.
The sportswear company is also seeking damages from the Australian label. The supplied details do not specify the court handling the case, the amount being claimed or the particular garments involved.
The legal action places the focus on the use of stripe designs in clothing and whether White Fox’s products conflict with Adidas’s rights. No response from White Fox or further details about the proceedings have been provided.
The latest known position is that Adidas wants the sales to stop and is pursuing financial compensation through the legal process.
