NIKESerial 72160545 · Principal Register
Dead · Expired
Owner: LAKESHIRE PRODUCTS, INC.
Class 029 - Meats & Processed Foods
Filed Jan 11, 1963
Registered Jun 23, 1964
This record shows that the mark “NIKE” was once registered on the Principal Register but is now dead because the owner, Lakshire Products, Inc., failed to renew it. The registration covered class 029, specifically sandwiches, and the mark was first used in commerce on December 1, 1961. Because the mark is no longer active, it does not give the owner control over the word “NIKE” in any context. The closest area of concern would be the sale or distribution of sandwiches or related food products, where the historical use could still raise a similarity issue. No enforcement activity—such as oppositions, cancellations, or court actions—is recorded, so the supplied history shows none. The last meaningful event was the expiration on September 23, 1984. For someone thinking of using a similar name, the risk is limited to the specific food category, but the mark’s dead status means there is no active protection to enforce.

The way I'd use it, honestly, is as the thing you attach when a bank, a marketplace, or a co-founder asks "are we clear on the name". It answers in one page.
