XIAMEN - Xiamen Customs in East China's Fujian province seized more than 14,000 pairs of fake Adidas, Nike and Puma shoes with a street value of $150,000.

Customs officers said the shoes were declared by a local trading company, which failed to provide the required certificates for using the trademarks of Adidas on 8,728 pairs of shoes, Nike on 5,400 pairs and Puma on 696 pairs.

Customs contacted the three trademark holders who confirmed the infringement on Monday and applied for customs protection of intellectual property rights.

The goods have been detained for further investigation.
