[Nike is suing Brooklyn art collective MSCHF
over a controversial pair of "Satan Shoes" that
contain a drop of real human blood in the soles.
The $1,018 (£740) trainers, which
feature an inverted cross, a pentagram
and the words "Luke 10:18",
were made using modified Nike Air Max 97s.
MSCHF released 666 pairs of the
shoes on Monday in collaboration with
rapper Lil Nas X and says they sold out
in less than a minute.

Nike claims trademark infringement.

The black and red shoes were "dropped"
by MSCHF on Monday, coinciding
with the launch of Lil Nas X's latest
song Montero (Call Me By Your Name),
which debuted on YouTube last Friday.
In the music video,
the rapper is seen
sliding down a stripper pole
from heaven to hell,
wearing a pair of the trainers.]
