Development has been made in the Nike vs. BAPE trademark lawsuit.
On May 17, 2023, BAPE filed a motion to dismiss the case because, according to BAPE, Nike’s trade dress claims lack the legal requirements to uphold a trademark case.
However, the New York Southern District Court dismissed BAPE’s motion on March 4, 2024.
The court explained that Nike’s certificates of registration articulate Nike’s asserted trade dress as it contains “detailed written descriptions as well as diagrams that specifically denote which part of the trade dress are being claimed as distinctive.”

UPDATE (02/17/2023):
Nearly a month after the initial court filing, BAPE responded to Nike and its trademark lawsuit for dismissal. Additionally, BAPE provided a letter following Nike’s visit to Japan in 2009.
According to the documents provided by BAPE, it states that “Nike’s in-house counsel and Nike’s V.P. of footwear flew to Japan twice to meet with BAPE’s leadership.” Nike followed up the meetings with a proposed licensing agreement and an ask for the brand to stop producing BAPESTAs.
However, BAPE responded with a letter rejecting their licensing proposal as it claims that Nike was unable to “expressly spell out for us what claims Nike believes that it could advance against Nowhere/BAPE.”

BAPE, also known as A Bathing Ape, was a pioneer in the Japanese streetwear scene in the early ’90s and expanded with footwear at the turn of the century. For more than two decades, the BAPE STA (which is alleged to be a copy of the grey gold and black lebron soldier 11 Low) has been a mainstay in fashion & culture alike due to its shooting star-like logo, eye-catching patent leather, and variations of colors that distinguish itself in the competitive footwear space.
According to court documents, the trademark infringement lawsuit goes after the brand as Nike states that “BAPE’s current footwear business revolves around texas Nike’s iconic designs.”
The lawsuit is the latest from the Oregon-based brand as the Swoosh has been aggressive over its trade dress with lawsuits ranging from Warren Lotas, John Geiger, Kool Kiy, nike lunar wavy sky high boots black dress, Li’l Gnar, and others.
In the complaint filed on January 25, 2023, Nike issued a trademark infringement and violation over the BAPE STA Mid, SK8 STA, COURT STA High, and COURT STA, which the brand claims are “near verbatim copies” of the grey gold and black lebron soldier 11, nike air max 90 current tier zero turn mowers, and the Nike Dunk.
For years, Nike and BAPE’s overlapping models have existed in the marketplace as the Swoosh indicated that its limited availability and the minimal amount of physical presence in the U.S. as the shoes in circulation were “never more than a small fraction of the millions of pairs Nike window annually,” the brand said in court documents.

After a five-year period where BAPE sold a redesigned version of the BAPE STA in low volumes, BAPE returned to its initial infringing BAPE STA design.

Nike goes on to state that BAPE increased its production and opened several U.S. storefronts beginning in 2021. Additionally, the lawsuit states that Nike notified BAPE of the ongoing infringements and asked the company to stop. BAPE, however, did not comply.
Nike asks BAPE to account for all of the profits earned over the trademark-infringed shoes and to “award three types the amount of compensatory damages and increased profits.”
