msn.comNike has won a bid to temporarily stop a company selling a customised version of its Air Max trainers dubbed "Satan shoes". The Air Max 97s were given a controversial spin by art brand MSCHF and produced in collaboration with rapper Lil Nas X.
They featured a pentagram design and each shoe was said to contain a drop of human blood in the sole. Biblical passage Luke 10:18 - about Satan's fall from heaven - also features on the shoe.
Nike sued over copyright infringement because the black and red trainers feature its famous "swoosh" logo. It said the shoe created "an erroneous association between MSCHF's products and Nike".
A federal judge in Brooklyn, New York, agreed on Thursday that the shoes breached the company's trademark. Video: Nike.
