WTF is up with Nike?

[HDGristle]

Called it. They sue to block and protect their brand and you still conjure up an issue because of your existing bias based on "facts" that are only in evidence in your own head.

You didn’t call it. Chizzy and I said what are they waiting for. You begrudgingly agreed that Nike COULD sue. Go back and read. I said all along that Nike should protect their brand. Nice try I guess.

Let’s see how far the lawsuit goes. At least Nike doesn’t want their brand to be associated with this kind of nonsense. Which was the point of the thread.

Where's the advanced knowledge of what MSCHF was going to do, Bam?

You claim they had it, say they should sue and they do but you still focused on that part. Go back. Read.

The first article said there was collaboration. I posted a second article from the same source that said there wasn’t a day later. I posted the last article that said Nike is suing. So I was transparent on the information I was reading. Like I said, we’ll have to see where the lawsuit goes. My guess it will be settled out of court. If it goes on, there will be discovery. Maybe the truth will come out.

Maybe the truth is already out

And then again, it may never come out. The whole deal seemed shady.

In real news. 665 pairs have been sold and delivered. The last pair will be given away.

This thread sparked my memory of a famous Micheal Jordan quote:

I think Nike got the message

Nike stated internet commentators are associating the shoes with the Nike brand. DUH!

People are different, and I suspect many people will buy this model for a good price. We all live in the modern world, so please send your stereotypes back to medieval times. I believe if you were back in 18th, you would go with a torch and burn all who are not thinking like you. I think you need to grow up, and for your knowledge, I wear the same Jordan 1 model with 666 number on the front to provocate people like you who are living still in the medieval, have a great time with your holy bible.

Fun looking back. They sold out almost immediately. 600 pairs shipped out and while MSCHF offered to allow them to return them, few did.

The controversy sent the resale value through the roof and MSCHF's other drops got even more popular from the attention bump.
