Usually I would agree that this is a publicity stunt, but considering their demographic this would be a pretty stupid one. Gen X & Y don’t exactly think lawsuits are “extreme”. Just another example of a legal term trying to keep their retainer coming.

Well, logos are the first thing to appear. I love NY logo was really fantastic. Another thing they are two completely different products… One is a clothing line, and the other is an (sporting) event.

Did the X games expect noone else in the world to ever again use an X? If they make a logo so simple and generic, they should expect others eventually will look similar.

And that Quicksilver one needs a re-do, anyway. Yikes.

I agree with J. This is a prime example of an overly litigious society and a marketing department running on fumes. It’s complete waste of time and resources. Maybe if these companies focus more on a quality product they wouldn’t have to resort to such nonsense.

This is nuts. Sometimes I think these types of law suits are mere publicity stunts. Not to mention, they are two completely different products… One is a clothing line, and the other is an (sporting) event.
