What this record means
The record shows that the mark “SOUL” is no longer active; it was cancelled on May 12 2023 because the owner, My Soul, LLC, failed to file a Section 8 declaration. The mark was registered on the Principal Register in class 009 for the specific good of sunglasses, with first use in commerce on September 18 2015. Because the cancellation was due to a maintenance filing lapse, the mark no longer confers protection, but the historical registration still indicates that the owner once claimed rights to that word for that particular product. The record does not create control over every use of “SOUL” in other goods or services. No opposition, cancellation, or court action appears in the supplied history, so there is no visible enforcement activity. For someone looking to use a similar name, the closest concern would be selling sunglasses under that name; for other products the risk is farther from the specific scope shown.
