Five people were arrested and charged after trafficking over $70 million worth of fake Air Jordans.

As reported by Aaron Katersky of ABC News, the counterfeit shoes arrived at Port of Newark from China. Though they look similar to those of legitimate Air Jordans, the fake sneakers didn't have the logos that are registered trademarks.

Charged with the crime were Miyuki Suen, Jian Min Huang, Songhua Qu, Kin Lui Chen, and Fangrang Qu with counterfeit trafficking conspiracy and trafficking in counterfeit goods. They face a maximum of 20 years in jail.

“These five individuals are alleged to have been a part of a large scale counterfeiting scheme, importing nearly a half million pairs of knock-off Nike sneakers. These counterfeiting networks can be both detrimental to our economy and threaten our national security, and HSI will continue to take every measure in investigating and dismantling these organizations,” ICE HSI Special Agent-in-Charge Angel M. Melendez said.

Investigators have been inspecting almost 27,000 pairs of sneakers before charging the Chinese nationals for the past eight months. In addition, for the past two years, the suspects have shipped 42 containers of sneakers which would cost $190 a pair on retail.

Over the years, Jordan has fought for its trademark rights in China. Two years ago, after a long court battle, Jordan won the case in relation to a local sportswear firm using the Chinese version of his name.
