Coach has initiated a legal battle against Gap Inc., accusing its Old Navy division of trademark infringement. The lawsuit was lodged in Los Angeles federal court, and the heart of the dispute is Gap’s sale of t-shirts emblazoned with the word “Coach,” which, according to Coach and its parent company, Tapestry, Inc., was done without permission.

Coach argues this act violates trademark laws and poses a significant risk of confusing consumers into believing that Coach had a hand in producing these garments. Given that Coach’s brand is synonymous with “a unique blend of fashion, craftsmanship, style, and function,” primarily through its “luxury lifestyle items,” the association with mass-market t-shirts is viewed as potentially damaging. The lawsuit states the “irreparable harm” that Coach believes it has suffered due to the unauthorized use of its trademark. Additionally, the company’s trademarks are not just logos but symbols of quality and luxury, carefully cultivated over decades since the brand’s inception in 1941, as reported by Retail Boss.

Coach is seeking unspecified damages for trademark infringement, counterfeiting, and violations of California’s unfair competition law. The luxury brand is also asking for the destruction of all unsold inventory of the infringing clothing. This case, officially titled Tapestry Inc et al. v Gap Inc., marks a notable departure from the usual targets of luxury brand lawsuits, which typically involve smaller entities like individual sellers, importers, or website operators.

With both parties being publicly traded and well-established in their respective markets, the outcome of this legal battle is poised to be a landmark event with potential ripple effects across the retail and fashion industries.

As the case progresses under case number 24-02697 in the U.S. District Court, Central District of California, it attracts the attention of industry insiders and consumers alike. The fashion world is keenly observing how the court will navigate the intricacies of trademark law in the evolving retail landscape and what the verdict will mean for the branding strategies of luxury labels and mass-market retailers moving forward.
