Dr. Marten's, who's got a friend in Miley Cyrus, has sued Chinese Laundry for allegedly selling shoes that are too inspired by the combat boot proliferators. They're demanding $1 million, plus attorneys fees, claiming that "has copied the Trade Dress and the overall style and configuration of Dr. Martens boots and shoes as closely as possible in a deliberate and calculated attempt to trade upon the popularity and distinctive appearance and design of Dr. Martens footwear."
