After 5 months of an ongoing trial between the country of Columbia and the Columbia apparel company the conflict has been resolved. Over five months ago the dispute started when the country of Columbia accused the Columbia apparel company of using their name without permission. The nation of Columbia stated that the apparel company made clothing primarily for cold weather which mis-represented their country's weather. President of Columbia, Alvaro Uribe, said, "The Columbia company is having a very serious effect on our nations tourism profits, and is making our country look like a horrible place to live or even visit." However this clash was resolved when Columbia Sportswear proposed an idea to have small hidden pockets on every jacket that are enclosed in an layer that is undetectable by dogs.
"We really just want to try to reverse what we have done to Columbia by helping their sales in their top priority crop", said Timothy P. Boyle – President, Chief Executive Officer and Director of Columbia Sportswear.
