Matthew Graff and Ellen Kiernan‘s article Crocs’ Design Takes a Bite Out of the Competition was published in the WTR Daily.
“The dispute centred around similar clog-style, fleece-lined shoes sold by Crocs and its competitor, Double Diamond Distribution Ltd. In 2008 Crocs obtained Canadian industrial design registration No 120,939 (the ‘939 design) for a variation of its classic clog shoe with a fleece lining and collar. Double Diamond’s ‘Fleece Dawgs’ shoes have been available for sale in Canada since 2008.”
