HAPPY N TAN VENTILATED BUCKET HATS: SMILING FACE

What this record means

The record shows that “HAPPY N TAN VENTILATED BUCKET HATS: SMILING FACE” is a live, registered mark on the Principal Register owned by Steven C. McCartney. It covers bucket hats, specifically ventilated bucket hats, first used in commerce on May 1 2018. A similar name would raise the closest concern for any product that is a bucket hat, especially one that is ventilated or marketed with a smiling face design. The record does not give the owner control over every use of the wording; it applies only to the goods listed. The prosecution history shows a standard examination sequence with an amendment on July 10 2024 and final registration on October 29 2024, with no supplemental register involvement. The latest event is the registration confirmation on October 29 2024, and no enforcement actions appear in the supplied history. For someone considering a similar name, the risk is that using the same or a confusingly similar mark on bucket hats could trigger a conflict with this active registration.
