Coach said this had caused “irreparable harm” because thier trademarks symbolized “a unique blend of fashion, craftsmanship, style, and function” reflected in the sale of “luxury lifestyle items,” not T-shirts. 

As per the report, Coach is seeking unspecified damages for trademark infringement, counterfeiting, and violations of a California unfair competition law.

The retailer also seeks the destruction of unsold inventory of infringing clothing.

Investors can gain exposure to the stock via Invesco S&P 500 Equal Weight Consumer Discretionary ETF and Bushido Capital US Equity ETF ( SMRI ) .
