buy their shoes only from legitimate traders, following the seizure of
over 2,000 pairs of counterfeit 'Nike' runners, with a retail value of
nearly €300,000, in Cork, on Monday last. Consumers sare
urged to buy only from legitimate traders, most of whom sponsor
our races, be it

According to Revenue, the runners were found following routine
profiling, and were likely destined for the local market. The
container originated in China.

to legitimate business and can pose health and safety risks to
consumers"
