Nike Inc. heightened its legitimate fight with sneaker commercial center StockX, saying it acquired four sets of fake shoes on the stage in spite of the company’s guarantees that it is as it was showcasing authentic footwear. The world’s biggest athletic-wear producer inquired a federal judge to let it include claims of counterfeiting and untrue promotion to the current trademark-infringement claim against StockX. It said it got the fake shoes, counting a fake Jordan 1 Retro High OG, from the marketplace between December and January. “Those four sets of fake shoes were all acquired inside a brief two-month period on StockX’s stage, all had attached to them StockX’s ‘Verified Authentic’ hangtag, and all came with a paper receipt from StockX within the shoe box expressing that the condition of the shoes is ‘100% Authentic,’” Nike said in a court recording Tuesday.
Nike sued StockX in February in government court in Manhattan, blaming the commercial center for “blatantly freeriding” on Nike’s trademarks and goodwill with a benefit called Vault NFTs. StockX contended that its NFTs aren’t digital sneakers but basically postings for physical sneakers that are put away in its vault and can be exchanged by users. StockX said in an articulation Wednesday that it takes client security “extremely seriously” and has contributed millions of dollars to “fight the multiplication of fake items that each worldwide commercial center faces today for all intents and purposes.”
The move by Nike “amounts to nothing more than a froze and desperate attempt to revive its losing legal case against our imaginative Vault NFT program that revolutionizes the way that customers can purchase, store, and offer collectibles securely, effectively, and sustainably,” StockX said.
“Nike’s challenge has no justification and clearly illustrates their need to understand the advanced marketplace.” The case is Nike Inc. v StockX LLC, 22-cv-983, U.S. Area Court, Southern Locale of Modern York.
