#Nike Reportedly Suing Lil Nas X's 'Satan Shoes' Maker – But Not Mr. Montero Himself
“#Nike Reportedly Suing Lil Nas X's 'Satan Shoes' Maker – But Not Mr. Montero Himself”
According to TMZ, Nike is suing the company for trademark infringement because the iconic Nike Swoosh logo is still prominently featured on X’s customized versions. The sneaker giant is seeking damages and wants a judge to block all future sales. However, Lil Nas X isn’t named in the lawsuit.
In this case, Lil Nas X is charging over $1,000 for the 666 pairs he had made. But if Nike has anything to say about it, Lil Nas X and MSCHF won’t have a chance to clear their inventory.
MSCHF has sold plenty of modified Nikes, including one called “Jesus Shoes” which were filled with Holy Water. Unsurprisingly, they failed to generate any press unlike the “Satan Shoes” that have been a trending Twitter topic all weekend.
Pastor Mark Burns, who has appeared as a commentator on CNN and Fox News, tweeted in horror, “This is evil and heresy and I pray that Christians rise up against this,” while Grammy Award-winning Christian singer Kaya Jones tweeted, “I told y’all what was up a long time ago! You are ready for what we are facing. Better start reading your Bible!”
Lil Nas X has apparently caught wind of the impending lawsuit and fired off a tweet joking about how poor he’ll be if Nike wins.
“Me after the nike lawsuit,” he wrote alongside a clip of a cartoon character begging for spare change.
