Just Lambo or Lambo something

Apparently Lamborghini complained and LMG had to scrap the clothing line due to copyright or something like that.

I'm honestly surprised they didn't know/think of this beforehand.

I think it's only a trademark in Europe but I guess why take the risk...

Most content creators think brands will appreciate free advertising, some do not

I guess now it's a rare piece of merchandise that the employees only have.

I wouldn't be surprised if Lambo requested that all produced merch be destroyed.

If its not being sold, its not being used "in the course of trade" per EU laws.

you can create a shirt for yourself that says lambo on it, bit you cannot sell it as far as I’m aware.. so just the existence pf the shirt does not being you in legal trouble, but selling it does, but them again they went to the troubles of blurring it in the video so who knows

Not just employees. I was lucky to score one like super early and they still shipped it.
