The company asked a federal judge for permission to add counterfeit claims and false advertisement as Stock X claims to sell sneakers that are “100% authentic.” During a court filing on Tuesday, Nike said they purchased four counterfeit pairs of sneakers from the platform despite the sneakers providing the authenticity tag and receipt.
