Nike is a huge company

They would've shut this down day one

:plzstop:

Not buying it
u dont think they're suing him?

the NY Times is reporting this news
they're super reliable.

i can see someone immediately putting out a statement, but filing a lawsuit is bit more of a process
gathering the information, etc. and it's only been a few days sfsfsfs

https://www.nytimes.com/2021/03/28/style/nike-satan-shoes-lil-Nas-x.html
a cease and desist is literally a statement they can email his team in 5 mins

And 66k is nothing to Nike

They didn't even imply they're taking action in their statement
he chooses to design and put a shoe on sale with their logo attached, promoting it as an exclusive shoe with no clear
is it a nike logo though? as i stated in my previous post, theres always loopholes around this kinda thing. if u look closely at the logo on the satan shoes, its not the nike logo. just in its likeness. this isnt the 1st or the last that companies have done this. they may actually end up losing their case because of how big lil nas x is, but people are also stupid as hell. if nike was selling something exclusive like that, it would be posted all up on their website. and did mschf actually promote the shoe as a nike exclusive, or did people just run with it because the logo and style looks like nike? i'm telling u, this lawsuit may not go anywhere.

trademark protection also protects LIKENESS  of a brand. not just outright claims or what's 100% a copy.

if there's enough room left for people to assume that's a nike logo, they have a case.

the fact that there are people in this thread who assumed nike was involved shows that there was misrepresentation - which i feel was intentional .

yes there are loopholes to some teas, but judges have common sense. they know when someone is pushing a product with the LIKENESS of another brand ...purposely.

im not saying its a 100% win, but it's solid. and valid

I have been following cases on thefashionlaw.com, they usually do a lot of research..so I think we're definitely going to see this in court. It's not just about the shoes but they also want all promotion material including digital files (photos taken) to be destroyed. They say they want the shoes and destroy them but I wonder if they are already shipped.

the promotion of the shoe does leave room for people to assume Nike could be associated with it

not everyone's gonna take time to read between the lines or do research

they see "Exclusive shoe line" being advertised and will assume Nike's on board

i think they have good reason for filing, considering how negative the press is surrounding the shoe

I think they could have created a shoe without Nike and it would have sold out as well.
That company created 24 Jesus shoes and didn't get sued so they thought they were safe I guess. 666 Devil sneakers is a cursed project, they should have known better than to create a Nike loves Satan: "Just do it, just go to hell." edition.  :plzstop:

Bentley. HARRIS!

And this is why he needs somebody that cares over him.

He's going to have ideas and they are going to push them all. But this is a very juvenile mistake.

Now I bet his record label will make a statement too

It's all knuck if you buck
Until the ppl with money and power start distancing themselves :dead:

He's gonna end up on an island and I just HOPE the fickle gays don't leave him there alone.

It's numbers out here. You make allies, not enemies.

This whole bullying story could've been turned into something positive about believing in yourself.

I get what he was doing but when you do things from a place of anger and resentment, it crumbles.

What he should've done is bounced that ass on Jesus dick and maybe had a muscle bound guy dressed as God riding his face... iono ... just something more creatively edgy than Satan

Bentley. HARRIS!

Or maybe a part in the video where the Holy Spirit cums in him, but it's like milk, like in Scary Movie when Cindy got blasted to the believing, maybe something like that with the Apostles in a "gangbang" setting

Just something more out of the box than stripping in hell
