What this record means
The record shows that the mark “SOUL” is live and registered on the Principal Register under serial 97594201, with the owner being BIG BANG, a société par actions simplifiée organized in France. The registration covers metal hardware for descending ropes, specifically metal rope belaying devices, metal autoblock devices, and metal carabiners. A similar name used in the same or closely related field of metal rope‑related hardware would raise the closest record‑based concern. This record does not give control over every use of the word “SOUL”; it applies only to the specified goods. The prosecution history indicates a straightforward approval path with no opposition or refusal, and the most recent event is the registration confirmation on July 30, 2024. No enforcement actions, oppositions, or cancellations appear in the supplied history. For someone looking to use a similar name in the same metal rope‑hardware market, the risk of confusion with this registered mark is meaningful.
