Shorthanded67 0 Report post Posted March 15, 2005 Earlier I was on the Oakley.com website to check out some details on their visors and I couldn't find the hockey section anywhere.(my question has since been answered)After putting "Oakley Hockey" into a search engine I found this:http://investor.oakley.com/phoenix.zhtml?c...ular&id=649719&This may have been posted months ago and I just missed the boat on it. Either way, does anyone know if Oakley has anything new planned since their hockey division is now part of THC/Reebok? (Not that their visors need any improvement anyway....best ones I've used). I'm also wondering if they will sport the "O" or RBK or whatever? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mik3 1 Report post Posted March 15, 2005 I think that had something to do with the lawsuit over the jofa visors. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shorthanded67 0 Report post Posted March 15, 2005 The distribution agreement follows the agreement by the parties to settle and dismiss litigation filed by Oakley in federal court alleging that THC and its subsidiaries infringed Oakley's U.S. Patent Nos. 5,815,848, 6,010,217, and 6,038,705. The parties agreed to dismiss Oakley's claims and the Defendants' counterclaims in the lawsuit, which contended that Oakley's patents were invalid. The Hockey Company, and its subsidiaries, have agreed to cease making and selling its JOFA-branded hockey shield accused of infringement in the lawsuit, and to not contest the validity of the patents during the life of the distribution agreement.
