VAVOOM!
Dead · Cancelled DEAD/REGISTRATION/Cancelled/InvalidatedWhat this record means
The record shows that VAVOOM! is a cancelled Principal Register trademark owned by MATRIX ESSENTIALS, INC.; the registration was cancelled on September 23 1996 because the registrant failed to file an acceptable Section 8 declaration. The only goods listed are “T‑SHIRTS AND SWEATSHIRTS” in International Class 025, so a similar name used on clothing would be the closest area of concern, while uses on unrelated products fall outside the scope shown in the record. Because the mark is not on the Supplemental Register, there is no supplemental‑register sequence to note; the prosecution history simply moves from approval for publication in October 1989 to registration in March 1990 and then cancellation in 1996. The supplied history contains no oppositions, cancellations beyond the Section 8 event, or other enforcement activity. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern if you plan to brand apparel with a similar name, but it does not automatically block all other uses.
