Qualitex v Jacobson Products [1995] Law Shirt – "Color Can Be a Trademark" – Vintage Garment-Dyed Tee

from $29.00

Can you own a color? In the world of Intellectual Property, the answer is a resounding "Yes." This premium, garment-dyed tee celebrates the landmark Supreme Court victory in Qualitex Co. v. Jacobson Products Co. [1995], which established that a specific color—in this case, "green-gold"—can serve as a protected trademark.

The design features a vintage-style industrial graphic and the core IP principle: Functionality vs. Distinctiveness. It’s a sophisticated tribute to the idea that a brand's identity is found in every detail, from the logo down to the very hue of the product.

This heavyweight shirt is designed for Intellectual Property (IP) attorneys, trademark specialists, and law students who appreciate the fine line between aesthetics and law. With its muted, vintage wash and relaxed drape, it feels like a soft, lived-in staple from the first day you wear it—perfect for long hours in chambers or a casual afternoon at a design gallery.
