What this record means
The record shows a live, pending application for the mark ALMOST BAREFOOT owned by Larkin & company, a California limited‑liability company, and it is being prosecuted on the Principal Register. The only listed goods are “Shoes” in International Class 025, so a later‑coming use of a similar name on footwear would be the closest record‑based concern, while uses on unrelated products would be farther from the scope shown. The record does not give the owner control over every possible use of the words “almost barefoot.” The prosecution history notes that the application was allowed for publication, published for opposition on Sep 2 2025, received a Notice of Allowance on Oct 28 2025, and most recently had a first extension of time to file a Statement of Use approved on Aug 7 2026 (status date Aug 6 2026). No oppositions, cancellations or court actions appear in the supplied history. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern if you plan a shoe‑related brand using a similar name.
