Why Nike Sued Clint... Then Embraced Him

Nike took legal action against Clint419 three years before the groundbreaking CRTZ AirMax 95 trilogy debuted.

In this video, I break down what led to the rift between one of Lundun's most prolific streetwear figures and the world renowned sportswear giant, and how Clint reacted to Nike lashing out against him just two years after the birth of Corteiz.

In part two, I look into the long term effects of the trademark dispute, how Clint blocked No Sauce Bry from reselling Corteiz clothing on his website, and why Nike were forced to embrace Clint despite his continued use of the "Corteiz Rules The World" trademark they had invalidated.
