Shoe surgeon messed up because he was selling materials kits to make your own fake custom Nikes. Nike asked him to stop multiple times and he would pull the kits but then a few months later make them available again. Nike got fed up, it is what it is.

😂😂. Nike may be hurting but shoe surgeon doesn’t make a drop to barely change Nikes books. They don’t need the money. Nike is protecting its brand and trademark. And anyone can say they don’t have to be like that but if you was Nike you would do same thing or at least should. And just because they’ve collaborated with him before doesn’t just automatically give him the right by “law”

I have to agree with Nike on this one. If you’re selling shoe kits versus customizing a single received pair, to the owners specification…Then yeah, that’s a problem. It’s apparent that SS was way too comfortable with his relationship with Nike and stepped out of line. Probably assuming they wouldn’t care or find out what he was doing.

You’re taking parts from other sneakers and trying to call it an Off-white or a Travis Scott! It is not a real Travis Scott or a Virgil off-white. you’re selling a kit to make whatever it is that you wanted it to be! FAKE! I don’t mess with replicas. Look up the meaning of replica. It’s not real! Slice it and dice it however, you see fit. I don’t care how good fakes are getting, I am not putting it on my feet. Because I know that I’m being a fraud.

@michaelmann47423 ай бұрын
Nike has sent him a cease and desist before if what the article I read. Main part to the case is trademark infringement and counterfeiting. The counterfeiting is how he was decon the shoe and build a whole new shoe with different materials and would still be the same as the original which patented and the the trademark infringement is where he would take the actual swoosh which is TM’d and putting his name to it and making it look like a Nike product. And I laugh when you said Nike trying to eliminate competitors, lmao, Nike net worth is over 110B, this size lawsuit won’t even change those books. In the end they are protecting their patents and trademarks. Which if “you” was over Nike “you” should too. Plus the mass producing hurt him in this case
@OGBrianS3 ай бұрын
The article I read quoting Nike directly, wasn't the 1:1 shoes, it's that he was manufacturing shoes, and teaching classes on how to make Nike fakes from scratch. Also, he had a downloadable swoosh they could use. Imo, 1:1 is custom. Manufacturing is a lottttt different 😊

A fake in my opinion is using materials whether from other materials to create a shoe similar to Nike is fake. But to paint or change autor details to the shoe but maintaining the integrity of the original design is real. So it’s a fine line between fake and real. But to mass produce is an obvious call fake all the way because Nike had absolutely no hand it. Therefore is not an official Nike product.

Nike just doing what they should’ve been did. 1 can get inspired but don’t copy and sell as your the creator. Pretty common sense. & to your point, customs are dope but when you’re out here mass producing a sneaker from another company; I mean what else would you expect to happen.

So it’s legal to make millions being a reseller selling Nikes in a personal store but will get sued if you touch the shoe and change it?

Nike dont need the money i promise. They are protecting their brand, their name, their patents, their very soul that makes nike what it is. Back when napster was a thing, everybody could share music and anybody could download free music. The artists then started bleeding money. Then lars ulrich had to represent the music industry alone and got looked at like a badguy. Nike dont need the money. They are simply protecting their interests. Sure their stocks are down, you hear all these different reasons but its just the was the market is rn. Shoes are cheap rn. As far as the whole thing with copyrights and patents and that is concerned ive been on the recieving end of someone taking from me without asking. It sucks. All these customizers had to do is ask or work within the confines of what nike would allow. Im sure if that was the case the shoe surgeon wouldnt be getting sued. This is just my 2 cents.

I hope nike squashes the rep market or at least figure out a way to make sure what we are getting is the real deal.
