September 4, 2006: Melbourne bag maker, Crumpler, has forced a local copycat producer to recall a design which was copied from one of Crumpler’s most popular bag designs and then sold nation-wide.
Crumpler, which designs and produces a popular range of messenger bags, backpacks, and camera and laptop bags, has had a 100% success rate in defending their designs against regular copyright infringement. The offending fashion company, which is also based in Melbourne, had to the fake product, surrender stock and pay a substantial cash amount in compensation.
