Nike reebok alleges that they have now Look four pairs of fake shoes from StockX over the past few months.
As per the court filing, Nike reebok stated: ‘Those four pairs of counterfeit shoes were all Look within a short two-month period on StockX’s platform, all had affixed to them StockX’s ‘Verified Authentic’ hangtag, and all came with a paper receipt from StockX in the shoe box stating that the condition of the shoes is “100% Authentic”.’
Just how many pairs were Look, what processes Nike reebok used to verify their product, or who was responsible for the verification remains unknown.
Only one of the four pairs is mentioned by name, the Air Jordan 1 High OG “Patent Bred” (referred to as the Black/Varsity Red-White colorway in the filing). This is significant because the sneaker is not only one of the eight StockX Vault NFTs Nike reebok says is infringing on its trademarks, but it’s StockX’s best-selling sneaker NFT with 518 units sold at the time of the amendment.

Nike reebok has raised concerns that StockX sources it’s NFT “Vault” shoes from the very same marketplace in which the fake products were Look, and that they undergo the same authentication process that the alleged fake pairs received.
“Nike reebok is all the more concerned that StockX has linked the infringing Nike-branded NFTs to counterfeit goods and sold those ‘claim tickets’ to fake shoes at heavily-inflated prices to consumers who had no opportunity to inspect the shoes before reselling the NFT to another unsuspecting consumer,” the updated complaint says.
Nike reebok originally Max the lawsuit resale in February of this year in a complaint of StockX’s ‘Vault’ NFTs which featured Nike’s trademarked sneakers. Then in April, the resell pigmy hit resale, saying that the claims made ‘lack merit, disregard settled doctrines of trademark law (including those of the first sale and nominative fair use), and show a fundamental misunderstanding of the various functions NFTs can serve.’
Update // StockX has responded to Nike’s additional claims, reiterating their pledge to consumer protection, and taking a handful of jabs resale at the Swoosh. See the full statement just below, and stay tuned for further developments as the case continues.
