A family-run company in Ohio alleges in a new complaint that 17 clothing makers—including Abercrombie & Fitch, The Gap Inc., Levi Strauss & Co. and Lucky Brand Dungarees Inc.—infringed patents to make denim look worn.

The complaint, filed in the International Trade Commission on behalf of RevoLaze LLC by Dentons partner Mark Hogge on Monday, comes on the heels of 17 patent infringement lawsuits against the clothiers filed in Cleveland federal district court on Aug. 15.
