Thanks for the fast reply!
I’m heading out the door any minute now, so please pardon my brevity -- but just a few things stood out from your response, and I’d love to have them resolved in the next day or two (I may or may not be back on email) so I can go ahead and just enter the E.A. on Mon morn when I return to the Office (rather than still having loose ends).
1. “EXERCISE APPAREL” is still indefinite (and likely overbroad too)* -- we need to list the articles of clothing individually by common commercial name
2. What you added in “Towels;,BATH TOWELS; COTTON TOWLES; KITCHEN TOWELS; BEACH TOWELS; TERRY TOWELS; HAND TOWELS;” impermissibly exceeds the scope of the original; I wasn’t looking for more specificity, so you can either delete the extra wording or we can fix it by adding “namely” (in which latter case, we can leave the second iteration of “
towels” because it’d no longer be an exact duplicate) … and let’s switch “COTTON TOWLES” to “COTTON TOWELS”3. I take it you don’t want to add another class, so then “
Charms for attachment to beverage glassware for identification purposes;Coasters, not of paper or textileand other than table linen” is a goner (as I’m sure you already understood)**4. How, exactly, would you like Class 35 to read? Most people who essentially relist all the goods in that services class just use the shorthand of “clothing” for Class 25, which is permissible in that context … and, obviously, it would behoove us to have the goods listing exactly as we agree to before doing a copy+paste into Class 35 (x2)
Thanks,
/Brendan/
