CLOSE

What this record means

The record shows the mark CLOSE is cancelled, so it is not a live registration, and the listed owner is GAP (APPAREL), LLC, a U.S. limited‑liability company. The registration covered only Class 3 cosmetics and cleaning products—specifically eau de toilette, hand and body soap, hand and body lotion, and shower gel—so a similar name used for those types of goods would raise the closest record‑based concern. The record does not give GAP control over every use of the word “CLOSE” in other industries or product categories. This was a Principal Register registration that was later cancelled because the owner failed to file a Section 8 declaration, as noted on the status date of Feb 7 2009; no later maintenance events appear. The prosecution history contains no oppositions, cancellations beyond the Section 8 lapse, or other enforcement actions, so the supplied history shows none. I'd treat this as a moderate concern if you plan a cosmetics or cleaning line under a similar name, but the risk drops sharply for unrelated goods.
