American Eagle Outfitters took Amazon to court, alleging that the e-commerce giant infringed on the clothing company's "Aerie" and "Offline by Aerie" trademarks, leading customers to knock-offs.
On Wednesday, American Eagle filed the lawsuit in U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York. The lawsuit states that Amazon carried out a "flagrant, unauthorized use" of the trademarks Aerie and Offline by Aerie on the website in order to lead consumers to believe that the products were available on the platform.
