News of the shoes drew outrage over the Palm Sunday weekend; some critics slammed both Lil Nas X and Nike. But Nike was quick to distance itself from the shoes, pointing out that they're custom adaptations of existing products.
"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."
Because they are Nike shoes. The rapper and that company modified them. I would assume it is similar to customizing a truck or a car or even a motorcycle. A lot of bike shops start out with a Harley and then change a lot of things and then slap their logo on it.
The thing to look for, now that NIKE is denying any involvement, is, will they sue this guy and the company that supposedly altered the shoes without NIKE's knowledge? Or will the allow their Brand to be used to promote, what is blatantly Satanic propaganda?
Really? Nike denies it?
Isn't that their Nike logo on the shoe?

They why aren't they suing for Copyright infringement for that Nike Logo?

So then they would be suing because stealing their logo/Product is Illegal, right?

It's kind of like a Shelby or Saleen Mustang. They buy it and fix it up. Except Nike doesn't sell them like Ford does.
It must be true because Snopes said so.
