NIKESerial 74449159 · Principal Register
Dead · Cancelled
Owner: BRS, Inc.
Class 025 - Clothing
Filed Oct 21, 1993
Registered Jan 30, 1996
The record shows that the mark “NIKE” was once registered on the Principal Register under serial 74449159, but it was cancelled on November 5, 2002 because the owner, BRS, Inc., did not file a required declaration under Section 8. The registration covered footwear in class 025, with first use on October 4, 1994. A similar name would raise the closest concern for footwear and related apparel, but the cancellation means the mark no longer confers nationwide protection, and it does not control every use of the word. The prosecution history shows a standard sequence: publication for opposition, allowance, registration, and a Statement of Use that was never filed, leading to the cancellation. No opposition, cancellation, or court action appears in the supplied history, so there is no visible enforcement activity. For someone considering a similar name, the cancelled status reduces the risk, but the historical registration still signals that the owner once claimed rights in footwear, so caution is advised.

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.
