Where did you hear/read that? Chinese news outlets(print and eletronic) are nototious for being reckleslly inacurate
Until recently, she had been with FILA for a long time.

So did they persuade her to wear a dress?
I have not seen her wear a dress for ages

She confirmed it herself in an interview. Thanks Fila but now with the Chinese brand

I am not disputing the fact that she is with a new chinese sponsor
I was responding to Lin Lin post where he stated that Sveta did not have a sponsor for years

Don't like the logo, but the color and fit of the dress is nice for her.

Why is anyone surprised by Chinese plagiarists? It's quit literally all they do.

Your avatar says you have been here since 2006, you should have known

So, where did you read/hear it?

Apparently "Qiaodan" means "Jordan" in Chinese

In my book that's one hell of a good reason for Sveta to choose the brand.

I hate their bootleg version of the Air Jordan pose

That must have been one good reason for Sveta to go for it.

Like in Michael Jordan?

Could Nike sue this company in US courts for trademark infringement?

It may be hard to do it with Software, but it should be relatively easy with garments

That's what MJ alleged (12 years after the company existed) but the company denied that accusation and claimed that the word is actually middle eastern (technically they are correct - "Jordan" is a Bible word and therefore MJ can't just patent that simply because he wants to).

vs.

It may be suggestive - but trademark infringement? ( mondaq.com )



A Chinese court had accepted Michael Jordan's lawsuit though:

Beijing, March 1, 2012 — “I am very happy that the Chinese courts have accepted my case to protect the use of my name and the interests of Chinese consumers. Qiaodan Sports has built a business off my Chinese name, the number 23, and even attempted to use the names of my children, without authorization. I think Chinese consumers deserve to be protected from being misled, and they should know exactly what they are buying.

“I am taking this action to preserve the ownership of my name and my brand.

“No one should lose control of their own name, and the acceptance of my case shows that China recognizes that this is true for everyone. After all, what's more personal than your name?”
