Nike Blocks Sale of Lil Nas X "Satan Shoes" (Nike v. MSCHF) (Patreon)

Nike Blocks Sale of Lil Nas X "Satan Shoes" (Nike v. MSCHF)

After the controversial release of "Montero", Nike took issue with the "Satan Shoes" made by Art Collective "MSCHF". 666 pair were made, 665 were sold at a price of $1,018 each. Nike filed a lawsuit and obtained an injunction preventing the release of the final pair. In this video, I go over trademark law governing Nike's claims and the case law supporting MSCHF's defenses. This case will require analysis of new interpretations of trademark, fair use, and first amendment law.
