S.W.I.M.

What this record means

The record shows that the mark S.W.I.M. is dead – it was abandoned on Oct 11, 2018 because the applicant, Vigilants LLC, a California limited‑liability company, failed to respond to an Office action, and there is no later filing to revive it. The application covered services in class 041 – motivational speaking, clinical assessments and educational programs focused on peak‑performance physical‑fitness training – and class 042 – a website for uploading motivational videos and an online community for athletes centered on peak‑performance training. A similar name would raise the closest concern if used for any fitness‑related coaching, assessment, or online video‑sharing services, since those are the exact areas the record lists. The record does not give Vigilants LLC control over every possible use of the word “SWIM” in other fields. The prosecution history shows a non‑final action in March 2018 followed by an abandonment notice in October 2018, and no enforcement actions appear in the file. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern for anyone planning a fitness‑oriented brand with a comparable name.
