Reebok sues Nike for patent infringement

Reebok International said on Tuesday that had sued rival Nike, which it claimed had infringed on a patent for its collapsible shoe technology. Reebok, which is owned by German company Adidas, said 11 of Nike’s styles for men and women infringed on the technology that allows shoes to collapse for travel or packaging purposes. Those shoes are marketed under the ‘Free,’ ‘Free Flex,’ ‘Free Zen & Now,’ ‘Free Trainer’ and ‘Free Trail’ product names. The lawsuit was filed in US District Court for the Eastern District of Texas.
