Apparel Company Sends Logan Paul Cease-And-Desist Letter Over Maverick Name
A New York-based clothing company has sent YouTube star Logan Paul a cease-and-desist letter to stop using their brand name. Maverick Apparel sent a press release to 411 noting that they have demanded Paul stop using their name in the wake of the backlash against Paul’s video showing a suicide victim in Japan’s Aokigahara Forest.
Maverick identifies itself as a manufacturer and clothing company that prides itself in “building wholesome apparel brands for juniors and children.” The company’s cease-and-desist letter noted, “Maverick by Logan Paul and Maverick Apparel (“Maverick”) trademarks are confusingly similar but moreover because you have embedded the term ‘Maverick Apparel’ as the title of the domain https://shoploganpaul.com, consumers have been confused, deceived and misled that he is affiliated with Maverick Apparel.”
The letter points out several example of Paul’s bad behavior, calling him a “vlogger catering to his evident lowest common denominator narcissism and who champions his scrotal injuries as a badge of pride in his quest of making an historical record of inanity.”
The letter continues, “Maverick Apparel has noticed a rapid and significant decline in its sales, reputation and goodwill of the Maverick Apparel brand as a direct result of your repulsive, abhorrent and mutton-headed conduct. In choosing to promulgate yourself and your maw-wallop across social media and champion yourself as an object of ridicule, hatred and contempt, you have simultaneously infected the good name of Maverick Apparel. “
Maverick claims that they’ve lost at least $4 million in damages and have said Paul must stop using the trademark within seven days or they will sue.
