Trademark Class 25: Clothing, Footwear and Headgear

Trademark Class 25 covers clothing, headgear, and footwear. This class includes all the types of garments, hats, as well as shoes which makes the categories very diverse and offers an all-inclusive protection for your brand in the fashion as well as in the apparel sector.
Registration under Class 25 allows complete trademark rights to your brand identity in the clothing, headgear, and footwear industries. Therefore, this registration safeguards your products like clothing and footwear to accessories like hats from getting violated, thus making your brand unique both domestically and internationally.
Class 25 protection is a viable need in business manufacturing or distributing clothing and fashion products. It will prevent the competition from using your brand but simultaneously help you to have a strong market position, thus improving the distinct identity of your brand.
