No. If they bought Nike shoes and customized them, that is their prerogative. If you bought a pair of Nikes, you can do what you want with them. Let me put it this way...If a t-shirt printing company sells a shirt that says "Kill Trump" on it, but it is printed on a Hanes t-shirt that the printing company bought....Hanes would have no connection to the nonsense printed on a shirt that they manufactured. It would still have the Hanes logo on the collar. Hanes would mostly likely make a statement saying that they are not affiliated with the T-shirt company and they do not condone the t-shirt companies line of vulgar t-shirts.
I didnt know that he claimed partnership. They will definitely sue him if he turns white. Otherwise, he will be marked safe from all forms of racist suing
Legally, using Nike shoes, complete with a visible logo, is copyright infringement. The unlawful use of Nike would be a big deal and belongs in a courtroom.
If Nike did not originally ok this being made, if they now want to distance themselves from it, should sue.
The fact that they are not, logically is suspicious.
666 of these shoes were supposed to have been made and sold as a limited edition.
Nike has how many lawyers? and the Company is worth how much? It seems like they want to "Distance" themselves in word only, not action.
So then they would be suing because stealing their logo/Product is Illegal, right?

What I am trying to say is that this guy claimed to have a partnership with Nike.
There was a commercial and ads.
The shoe has the Nike logo on it.
