Eddie Van Halen Goes After Nike Over Shoe Design

Yesterday we shared with you a couple of the latest instances of the more interesting fashion design lawsuits of the week, but it turns out we weren’t quite done, as the best one was just waiting in the wings. Musician Eddie Van Halen has filed a suit against the Nike for copyright infringement over a pair of shoes they’d recently released that feature a pattern similar to a guitar Van Halen uses, specifically, “the Frankenstein,” which he has had copyrighted since 2001, according to Women’s Wear Daily.
