Response to Office Action

To the Commissioner for Trademarks:

Application serial no. 88463571 TWO TONE(Standard Characters, see http://uspto.report/TM/88463571/mark.png) has been amended as follows:

ARGUMENT(S)
In response to the substantive refusal(s), please note the following:

TWO TONE is my clothing brand. I came up with the idea to start a clothing brand when I was about 12 years old. I thought of many names and many logos until I finally came up with TWO TONE. TWO TONE means many things to me. First of all it is my brand name so to me it is like my last name. TWO TONE also means two ideas of expression, the bad vs the good, right vs wrong and ect. When friends ask me what my brand name means I often tell them it?s a lifestyle. You can carry yourself in a very two tone way. For example, you work all week and during the weekend you turn into a party animal. TWO TONE, I guess you can say is a very bipolar brand. TWO TONE reflects on your attitude. The way you speak to a person can be measured by your tone of voice. Some people only have two tones(happy/sad, energetic/tired, hungry/full). TWO TONE also means ?emitting or consisting of two different sounds, typically alternately and at intervals? my clothing brand is emitting two different types of vibrations/energy through how the clothing fits and feels. I soon hope to be releasing not only clothing but also fragrances, skateboards and almost anything that can be imagined.

EVIDENCE
Evidence in the nature of Evidence consists of screen shots of corresponding trademarks similar to TWO TONE. Evidence also consists of arguments to persuade the attorney to re approach my trademark with a different mindset. has been attached.
