In a statement, Nike explained that its customers had confusingly called for a complete ban on its products when the real perpetrator continues to manufacture “unauthorized Nike-inspired shoes”. Basketball superstar, Nick Young, was one of the many notable personalities who expressed reservations over the outfit’s alleged production.

In its support, the footwear giant said,

Nike files this lawsuit to maintain control of its brand, to protect its intellectual property, and to clear the confusion and dilution in the marketplace by setting the record straight — Nike has not and does not approve or authorize MSCHF’s customized Satan Shoes
