Kanye West Refiles Application For Yeezy Clothing
The rapper did not file trademark paperwork so he could focus on other clothing items like his shoes. Fujian Baby Network Technology Co. seized the opportunity, however, and filed for the name Yeezy Boost for its clothing products.
After learning about the filing, West's team refiled their application for Yeezy clothing. However, they were told that it will take time before things get finalized because the Chinese company currently has ownership of the Yeezy brand.
