Nike Inc. filed a patent infringement lawsuit against Adidas-Salomon AG on Thursday, claiming its archrival makes shoes using elements of Nike's SHOX cushioning technology. Beaverton-based Nike alleges the new Kevin Garnett signature shoe by Adidas and its A3 shoes are among the footwear that violate the Nike patent. "Despite Nike's patent protection, Adidas has built shoes that use Nike's technology," Nike spokesman Vada Manager said.
