Trademark Application Class 18 Leather, Animal Skin & Fur Goods

In this blog, we aim to provide a detailed overview of Class 18 in the Trademark Classification process. Choosing the right trademark class is important for successful trademark use. Sometimes the application falls into more than one category, providing better protection. That’s why choosing the right class is so important—it reinforces the effectiveness of the Trademark Registration process.

Trademark Class 18 Overview

Welcome to the refined domain of Class 18, where the essence of leather and its imitations come to life, alongside a curated collection of items fashioned from these distinguished materials. Delve into a world that spans the luxurious touch of leather, the rich textures of imitations, and the artistry encapsulated in various goods.
This class primarily encompasses leather, imitations of leather, and select products crafted from these materials. Among its treasures are luggage and carrying bags that include suitcases, trunks, and travelling bags, as well as sling bags tailored for carrying infants, showcasing the fusion of functionality and style found in school bags—a testament to the versatility within this class.
Distinctive accessories take centre stage, with an array of business card cases and pocket wallets seamlessly combining practicality with sophistication. These accessories exemplify the craftsmanship inherent in Class 18.
Boxes and cases crafted from leather or leatherboard reveal the artistry woven into each piece, serving as a testament to the skilful crafting of materials that stand the test of time.
As you embark on this exploration, it’s essential to note the boundaries of Class 18. While it is a realm of elegance, certain items find their place in other classes. This class does not extend its embrace to walking sticks or canes for medical purposes (Class 10) or clothing, footwear, and headwear made of leather for human beings (Class 25). Additionally, it excludes bags and cases specially designed for specific products, such as laptops, cameras, photographic equipment, musical instruments, golf gear, skis, and surfboards.
Class 18 thrives on the elegance and functionality of leather and its imitations, capturing the essence of timeless craftsmanship and enduring style. Step into a world where sophistication meets practicality, and every accessory tells a story of refined artistry.
