Kanye West‘s life is anything but drama-free. According to TMZ, Jordan Outdoor Enterprises Ltd. has issued a copyright infringement lawsuit against YEEZY and Unknwn, LeBron James‘s Miami-based fashion imprint. Jordan Outdoor Enterprises claims that the two labels stole camouflage patterns from its line of Realtree camouflage goods.

Check out a comparison below of West’s YEEZY Season 5 camouflage pants and the Realtree pattern.

The suit purports that “distinctive markings” reveal the rip-off and state that a YEEZY representative previously contacted Jordan Outdoor Enterprises to inquire about using the Realtree patterns.

Stay tuned for more information as the suit develops.
