GRUPPO ITALIANO SAKS FIFTH AVENUE

What this record means

The record shows that the application for “GRUPPO ITALIANO SAKS FIFTH AVENUE” is dead – it was abandoned on Jan 24 1998 because no Statement of Use or extension was filed after the Notice of Allowance, and the owner listed is Saks & Company, a New York corporation. The filing covered only Class 025 clothing, specifically women’s jackets, pants, skirts, tops, sweaters, underwear and coats and men’s coats, so a similar name used for apparel would be the closest area of concern; uses in unrelated fields would fall farther from the scope shown here. The record does not give the owner control over every possible use of the wording, just the listed apparel items. The prosecution history shows a series of extensions for filing a Statement of Use before the final abandonment, but no Supplemental Register filing appears. The supplied history contains no oppositions, cancellations or court actions, so no enforcement signals are visible. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern if you plan to brand clothing with a comparable name.
