What this record means
The record shows a live, pending application for the mark NORTHWEST AIRLINES NWA filed by Malibu Shirts, Inc., a California corporation, and it is currently published for opposition after a request for an extension of time was filed with the TTAB. The application covers only clothing – specifically hats, sweatshirts and T‑shirts in International Class 025 – so the closest area of concern would be any apparel that uses the same wording. The record does not give Malibu Shirts any control over the words “Northwest Airlines” or “NWA” in other product categories or services, and it does not indicate a registration on the Supplemental Register. The most recent status event is the July 15, 2026 entry noting the opposition extension request; no enforcement actions such as oppositions, cancellations or court proceedings appear in the supplied history. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern if you plan to launch clothing with a similar name, because the pending claim could block use in that same apparel space.
