The North Face ,a company specialized in outerwear, fleece, footwear, and equipment has sued The South Butt for trademark infringement.
The South Butt is a company started by a teenager ,Jimmy Winkelmann who sells clothes online. Jimmy Winkelmann started this company in response to a number of people who buy clothes from The North Face . "I thought of The South Butt in response to a growing number of people who continued buying gear and clothes from a brand they really didn’t relate to, but were buying because “everyone else was. After seeing the same people wearing the same brands, I decided to create a way to poke fun at the norm, while making an affordable and quality product. " |
