How do you protect a special design? Or a special quality that you are making your clothing line around?
Ok sbinlb – what about a Trademark? Under the guidelines of Trademark protection, no other company/persons could imitate the same idea. And brand registration. Still you think a waste of time? No legal way to protect an intellectual property?

Even if you patent your clothing line, it is still easy for people to copy your line. It only takes 3 small changes, it the patent is no longer valid. Many companies create 2 lines, under completely different names… the one with their good products and the one with cheaper products and knockoff themself so someone doesn’t knock them off first.
The other problem with a patent is even when it truly is an exact knockoff, it takes so much money to enforce a patent that most small companies can’t even afford it.
