Louboutin Loses Red Sole War With YSL!

A judge denied Christian Louboutin's request for a preliminary injunction against Yves Saint Laurent for alleged trademark infringement on red-soled shoes.  This is not only a victory for YSL, but also opens the red sole floodgates for other shoe manufacturers, as as well. 

Sigh. So long, coveted red soles. Soon, we'll be able to buy hideous, red-soled shoe atrocities at Payless.

Double-sigh.
