An Elk Grove man is getting pushback from a large sportswear apparel company after he applied to trademark the name of his Christian-based clothing line.

Duane Wilborn is the founder of a clothing company called, “Armour OG”. The ‘OG’ stands for “Of God,” Wilborn explained.

Wilborn says he received a 185-page opposition letter from Under Armour after he submitted his trademark application to the United States Patent and Trademark Office.

“I just told them it’s a word from King James Bible – it doesn’t sound like you guys. It’s Christian directed – there’s really no conflict,” Wilborn responded.

ABC10 reached out to Under Armour for a statement but has not received a response yet.
