ALMOST HOME

What this record means

The record shows that the application for “ALMOST HOME” is abandoned, so it is not a live or registered mark; the owner listed is KOLON INDUSTRIES, INC., a corporation organized in Korea. The filing covered class 018 goods such as handbags, shoulder bags, duffel bags, travel bags, beach bags, backpacks, school bags, climber’s sport bags, umbrellas, wallets, leather, imitation leather and empty portable cosmetic cases. A similar name used on any of those items would create the closest record‑based concern because the goods are specifically listed in the application. The record does not give KOLON INDUSTRIES control over every possible use of the words “ALMOST HOME” in other categories. The prosecution history shows the USPTO issued a non‑final office action on May 6 2024, followed by an abandonment notice on August 21 2024 after the applicant failed to respond, which is the latest status event. No oppositions, cancellations or court actions appear in the supplied history. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern if you plan to brand similar bags or related accessories under the same name.
