: Patently ObviousOakley's Sunglasses and Design Patents
By Dennis Crouch, Esq.
Oakley recently sued Fox, Marvel, and others for infringement of its design sunglasses design patent No. D470,166. According to the complaint, the movie industry has knocked-off Oakley’s design to promote Silver Surfer DVDs.
Oakley owns over 100 design patents on its various sunglass designs. Since 2004, the fashion trend-setter has filed over 30 complaints against accused infringers.
Apparently, Mardsen wore genuine Oakley in his role as Cyclops. What damages if they had been fakes?
