Faked marks to cover infringing trademarks such as Nike and Adidas are becoming a new trend to escape supervision, according to customs in Xiamen.
Logos are also found covered with leather.
Product pirates then remove the disguise after goods clear customs.
Several such trademark infringement cases have been investigated recently, including 31,320 pairs of casual shoes with a total declared value of $92,952.
