Comment on Abercrombie Trademark Bully: Hollister vs. Hollister by Dave

What a bunch of nut jobs! Where has common sense gone? Trademark owners and even those who don’t own a valid trademark or trade dress, still try and squeeze the legitimate business that may be competition for them on the horizon, with litigation and expense tactics. The laws are written to protect these abusers. As one corporate president of a worldwide accessories company put it one day on the phone to me, “Anybody can sue a ham sandwich.” (His words truly!) A large infant shoe company, pediped footwear, does the same thing. Sends out vague but threatening C&D letters hoping to shut down any competition, legitimate or not. I have a business owner friend who received one last year and it was ridiculous! These companies look fantastic in the “public eye” and get accolades for their “contributions” but what the public does not know, is that they are really scheming trademark bullies who don’t want fair competition. They just don’t want any competition at all.

Your comments are appreciated. Nonetheless, use of Hollister for surf clothing, whether derived from the town or the iconic surf spot, Hollister Ranch, also gives pause to wonder whether the mark is primarily geographically descriptive. If a word is primarily geographically descriptive, it is not allowed to be ursurped by one owner as a trademark.

The author Cheryle Hodgson, seems to be a little off base in tho thinking the Hollister Clothing came up with their name from the “town” of Hollister as an influence in name alone.
It’s clear Hollister clothing’s name came from the iconic surf spot in Santa Barbara county, Hollister Ranch. The not so secret spot that has been featured in surf films, surf magazines and various other media outlets throughout the years
is the prime influence for the name of Hollister Clothing. The author, most likely thinks a skeg a something you put a bandaid on.
Sorry Cheryl, spend a little time in the water , learn a little surf history and create a truely dynamic story.

Cheryl, I learned a few things in your story as well – thank you. Haybar’s huh, I didn’t know that.
Keep the blogs coming.
Check out Hollister Ranch history in surf culture, then you’ll know what I’m talking about.
