Sportswear giant Nike has revealed it won't release a funky new version of its Air Force 1 sneakers after objections from an indigenous group in Panama.
The colourful reimagining of the iconic shoe was meant to be released in June and it was supposed to celebrate Puerto Rico.
However, Nike is now accused of "pirating" the style after an indigenous group in Panama objected to one of its traditional designs being used.
The company said in a statement: "We apologise for the inaccurate representation of the design origin for the Nike Air Force 1 'Puerto Rico' 2019. As a result, this product will no longer be available."
The Guna people, one of seven indigenous groups in Panama, live mainly on the Caribbean coast and have traditionally used the swirling, multi-coloured "Mola" design.
