Primark's US arm, Penneys, is close to finalising a settlement in the United States over claims that the Irish-founded retailer of budget fashion copied the UGG boot. The dispute involves Deckers Outdoor Corporation, which owns the UGG brand in the US and has pursued a long-running copycat row with Penneys. Australian makers of UGG-style boots who had produced such boots since the 1970s changed their name after a prior lawsuit. The potential settlement follows prolonged legal contention over design and branding rights related to sheepskin boots.
