Miami swimwear brand Breezy Swimwear sues Chris Brown, claiming his “Breezy Bowl XX” tour name infringes its trademark and confuses customers.
Chris Brown just kicked off his “Breezy Bowl XX” tour in Miami—and he’s already facing a lawsuit from a local business that says he stole their name.
Breezy Swimwear, a Miami-based brand founded in 2018 to champion female empowerment, claims that Brown’s tour title is trampling on its trademark rights and creating customer confusion.
According to court papers, Breezy Swimwear began using the “Breezy” name from day one and launched its own “Breezy Bowl” event last year to showcase new swimsuit lines.
Company CEO Kris Izquierdo says fans have been sliding into their Instagram DMs, convinced that Chris Brown will show up at the swimwear brand’s events. Izquierdo adds, “There’s clearly confusion,” as followers mix up the tour with their hometown swim showcase.
Attorney John Hoover, representing Breezy Swimwear, told TMZ that fame doesn’t grant celebrities the right to bulldoze small businesses. He argues that Breezy Swimwear “coined ‘Breezy Bowl’ here in Miami; we are simply asking the court to protect that home-grown brand and end the confusion.”
Breezy Swimwear filed a trademark infringement suit against Chris Brown and Live Nation, seeking an injunction to stop them from using “Breezy” or “Breezy Bowl” on any merch, marketing materials, or promotional events.
The complaint claims that Brown’s tour branding is “sullying their goodwill” and damaging the company’s reputation.
Brown first announced his “Breezy Bowl XX” tour back in March, just weeks after wrapping up legal issues in London.
Now, as he gears up for sold‑out arenas and festival dates, Breezy Swimwear wants the courts to force Brown’s camp to shred any existing merchandise bearing the contested names.
As of now, neither Chris Brown nor Live Nation has publicly responded to the lawsuit.
But with the tour in full swing and legal papers circulating, both sides are gearing up for a high‑stakes showdown—one that could reshape how celebrities and small brands navigate naming rights in the future.
