Eris Running Shoes, of kortweg Eris, is een bedrijf in GTA dat sportschoenen en andere sportkleding produceert. Reclame voor dit bedrijf is te zien en te horen in GTA III, GTA San Andreas en GTA Liberty City Stories.
Eris is een persiflage van het bedrijf Nike. Eris is de Griekse godin van de twist en ruzie (tegenover Nike, de godin van de overwinning). In de Eris-reclames van GTA III blijkt dat het bedrijf kindarbeiders in dienst heeft, als parodie op de opspraak rond de fabrieken van Nike waar arbeiders onder erbarmelijke omstandigheden werken.
