A legal battle that began on 10 June when the German multinational accused the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nike.com\/es\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>swoosh<\/strong><\/a> brand of having violated its intellectual property through apps such as <strong>Run Club<\/strong>, <strong>Training Club<\/strong> and <strong>SNKRS<\/strong>. It also claims that the <strong>Adidas_1<\/strong> shoe from 2005 has also been affected as it is<em><strong> &#8220;the world&#8217;s first smart running shoe&#8221;<\/strong><\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>Thus, <strong>adidas<\/strong> demands a financial consideration that is <em><strong>&#8220;an amount sufficient to compensate adidas for the Defendant&#8217;s infringement of the patents in suit, but not less than a reasonable royalty, together with interest and costs&#8221;.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p>The dispute comes a year after<strong> Nike<\/strong>&#8216;s complaint against adidas for infringing its patented <strong>&#8216;Flyknit&#8217;<\/strong> technology with<strong> &#8216;Primeknit&#8217;<\/strong>.
