BIRKENSTOCK
Pending · Under Examination LIVE/APPLICATION/Under Examination
What this record means
The record shows that the mark “BIRKENSTOCK” is currently pending under examination on the Principal Register, owned by PENGFEI. The application covers shoes and related footwear items listed under class 025, such as deck‑shoes, canvas shoes, running shoes, and sandals, with first use on December 26, 2021. A similar name would raise the closest concern in the footwear market, especially for products that match those specific goods. This filing does not give the owner control over every use of the word “Birkenstock” in all contexts. The prosecution history indicates a non‑final Office action was issued on July 27, 2026, requiring the applicant’s response; no opposition or cancellation events appear. The latest status event is the July 27, 2026 notification of the non‑final action. With no enforcement activity shown, the record suggests a meaningful risk for anyone using the name in the same or closely related footwear categories.
