Lil Nas X admitted the first time the 'Satan Shoes' backlash really got to him was after a judge blocked sales of the promotional shoes amid Nike's lawsuit.
A federal judge has temporarily blocked the sale of Lil Nas X s Satan Shoes.
Earlier this week, Nike sued MSCHF as they did not authorize the production of Nas Satan Shoes which uses Nike Air Max 97 shoes. Even after the modifications, the shoes sold still feature the company s signature swoosh checkmark, which means they were able to sue for trademark infringement.
In legal documents obtained by
TMZ, Nike claims that the company is in no way connected with this project. Additionally, Nike submitted proof that consumers are saying that they will not purchase from the company again because of the shoes, causing harm to their brand s reputation.
