NEW BALANCE IS TAKING KARL LAGERFELD TO COURT

New Balance is going to try and take Chanel head designer, Karl Lagerfeld, to court after claims that his new sneaker design is a knock off of New Balance’s signature shoe design. The company is arguing that the similarity will confuse consumers, with a $270 price difference between the shoes, it'd be surprising if anyone was confused between the two. This is a humourous logo-rip at best, so stop whining, New Balance.
