AFTONKNITSSerial 73014492 · Principal Register
Dead · Cancelled
Owner: Afton House Corporation
Class 025 - Clothing
Filed Feb 27, 1974
Registered Dec 07, 1976
The record shows that AFTONKNITS, owned by Afton House Corporation, was registered on the Principal Register (Reg. No. 1053962) for clothing in class 025, but the registration was cancelled on May 3 1983 because the owner failed to file an acceptable Section 8 declaration, so the mark is now dead. Because the goods are listed simply as “Clothing” with no further description, the closest area of concern would be any new mark that also covers apparel or related textile products; a similar name used for unrelated services would be farther from the scope shown here. The record does not give the owner control over every possible use of the word “Aftonknits” in any context. The latest meaningful event is the Section 8 cancellation in 1983, and no further maintenance filings or enforcement actions appear in the history. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern for clothing‑related branding, but it does not automatically block other industries.
Full event history, owner details, and verdict inside.
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.
