What this record means
The record shows that the mark “NIKE” was abandoned after a decision by the Trademark Trial and Appeal Board, so it is not live or registered. The owner listed is LUHUA ZHAO, an individual. The abandoned goods are agricultural machinery such as combines, aquarium pumps, cheese‑making machines, clothes washing machines, electric can openers, electric glue guns, and electric vacuum cleaners, all under class 007. A similar name would raise the closest concern for those specific types of machinery and related equipment. This history does not give control over every use of the word “NIKE.” The record contains no prosecution history or supplemental register information, and no enforcement actions are visible. The last status event was the abandonment on January 4, 2011. For someone considering a similar name, the record suggests a meaningful risk for use in the listed machinery categories, but it does not preclude use in unrelated areas.
