Nike should be the least of his worries. Japanese companies are not known to play around with their IP, especially Nintendo.

Some wild times. Dude’s selling knockoff 1s in pokémon packaging.

And isn’t this knockoff a knockoff of the other knockoffs that the cool kai dude was already selling?

And knockoffs/bootlegs use to got for half the price if not lower.

Bootlegs use to cost $70-100….

$300+ for bootlegs

Lots of IP jacked here. I've seen companies come for less.

Nintendo don't play. They don't even want folks to stream Nintendo Directs.

Take my money

Ye don’t even fw TikTok, French might as well be speaking Chinese with that nft stuff. Man made it to a billy the real way hand over foot. This virtual stuff ain’t real wealth, soon as people decide to move on its literally worthless. If bored apes falls off tomorrow you just wasted 6-7 figures on something you could never even touch.

Y'all think that virtual wealth ain't real until you need some virtual bucks to get pass this security guard

Omi is facing tripled digit numbers from piracy, money laundering and conspiracy charges. Plus whatever the IRS hit him with. Phil Knight and Mario are the least of his worries.




Idk how I missed this.

Some background info on that Kool Kiy situation.

This guy bought Kiy a townhouse,car etc and fronted the money for the business and Kiy took the money. They even did a deal with Footlocker and Kiy fooled FTL into doing other deals keeping the money.

Iono how or why ppl still buying his stuff. Crazy!

Saw a pair of these Fugazi 1s out in the wild… quality didn’t look like it was there lol

A couple more pairs of real Jordans and a couple others and I’m done with the “shoe culture” completely.

I doubt Jalen bought those. Either Kiy gave them to him for free, paid him to wear them or a stylist picked them out. He's signed to Adidas so it's a nice loophole.

If you create a fanbase/group of stans online it's a nice customer base. It's the same thing D and E list comedians do with podcasts which inflates their ticket sales on the road and then they create a merch line.

Damn this around the block from my crib…. Dude owns a few bars, restaurants and another clothing brand.

Once you own a bar, you're set. The margins are absurd
