What's in a color

Things aren't looking good for everyone's favorite scarlet soled shoemaker Mr. Christian Louboutin. Chris (as I like to refer to him) initiated a lawsuit against designer rival Yves Saint Laurent back in April and today a judge says a win is not likely. Chris claims YSL infringed on his trademark by creating a shoe with a red bottom. A loss would mean everyone from Chanel to Payless could start painting the soles of their shoes with the eye catching "Chinese Red". The red bottom has become a major status symbol in our modern times. What do you think? Should Chris be allowed to trademark the color?
