Loubutin isn't relevant enough to have any case that holds water in court.

He sued Yves Saint Laurent and didnt exactly "lose". They ended up with a compromise.

So yes it's possible he could sue ROEN and do the same. He's probably never heard of them just like the many other things in Japan and Korea and China that are copies of other things that never get sued because people couldn't care less as they see them as irrelevant, while YSL is actually a viable global competitor.

But there's no females. Besides, Louboutin has lost these type of lawsuits in the past, it's hard to trademark a color.

Theres three females (Stella, the brunette girl and the Dragoon lady). And like I said, Louboutin didn't really lose; they settled on a compromise.

But do those females wear red soles or a design that could be mistaken for Louboutin?

Louboutin did lose a case to Zara about red soles.

Earlier this year, Louboutin told French newspaper Libération why the cause is important to him and his brand identity and that he is aware he cannot 'monopolise' a colour.


He said: 'I understand that, but it is a red in a specific context, there is Ferrari red [and] Hermès orange.
'Even in the food industry, Cadbury recently won a lawsuit against Nestlé for using purple packaging.
'All this proves that the colours play a part in a brand's identity. I'm not saying that red usually belongs to me - I repeat that this is about a precise red, used in a precise location.'
