A shoe company suing Paris Hilton over the design of the heart shaped insole

Nearly two years after building up the successful Paris Hilton Footwear collection, a company shoe is suing Paris over a heart-shaped pad on the insoles of Hilton’s shoe collection, according to The Sun and a lawsuit filed in Seattle.

The document claims the heart cushion was patented by them in 2007, before the launch of Paris Hilton’s shoe collecton.

In the document, the firm also boldly mentions that they want Antebi Footwear, Paris’ shoe company, to deliver them “all goods, signs, advertising, and promotional materials relating to the Paris Hilton Footwear Line Collection containing a heart-shaped shoe cushion.”

But there’s more to the issue, read it here.

Arrrrgh.
Looks like this might be another attempted cash grab or a way to get noticed by an unknown company?

I own a lot of her shoes and Paris Hilton’s heart looks nothing like the heart from this shoe company I never heard of.

Frivolous lawsuits! How do you patent a heart or a footpad?????

Besides, the manufacturer for Paris shoes is Antebi footwear, they have been in business for a long time and will know how to handle a patent dispute.
