Lil Nas X Satan shoe buyers can get a full refund after Nike lawsuit
The company that sold customized Nike Air Max 97s
featuring satanic symbols and a red liquid in the sole
that supposedly contains human blood will buy back customers’ shoes for a full refund.
Nike settled a lawsuit with MSCHF, the Brooklyn-based
art and design studio behind the Lil Nas X branded “Satan” shoe that made waves on social media. Nike said the alterations and sales were unauthorized.
As part of the agreement, MSCHF will issue a voluntary recall for the Satan shoes, buying back the sneakers at the $1,018 sale price. Nike said it hoped the recall would remove the shoes from circulation. Other details of the settlement were not released.
The lawsuit between Nike and Lil Nas X’s “Satan Shoes” has been settled.
The Old Town Road rapper unveiled a controversial, modded Nike Air Max 97 to go alongside his video for “Montero (Call Me by Your Name).”
However, the outlandish promotion was so effective that Nike sued MSCHF, Brooklyn-based designing label, with a trademark infringement for deceiving consumers, Huffington Post reported.
“We do not have a relationship with Little Nas X or MSCHF,” Nike said in a statement. “Nike did not design or release these shoes and we do not endorse them.”
The shoes, a part of a limited campaign where only 666 numbered pairs exist, allegedly decorated with real blood, were not something Nike wanted to be associated with.
