`REQUEST FOR RECONSIDERATION DENIED

`
`
`
`
`ISSUE/MAILING DATE:
`
`
`
`
`
`The trademark examining attorney has carefully reviewed applicant’s request for reconsideration and is
`denying the request for the reasons stated below. See 37 C.F.R. §2.64(b); TMEP §§715.03(a)(2)(B),
`(a)(2)(E), 715.04(a). The requirement(s) and/or refusal(s) made final in the Office action dated July 30,
`2014 are maintained and continue to be final. See TMEP §§715.03(a)(2)(B), (a)(2)(E), 715.04(a).
`
`
`
`In the present case, applicant’s request has not resolved all the outstanding issue(s), nor does it raise a
`new issue or provide any new or compelling evidence with regard to the outstanding issue(s) in the final
`Office action. In addition, applicant’s analysis and arguments are not persuasive nor do they shed new
`light on the issues. The examining attorney provides additional third party advertising evidence and
`third party registrations, which support the refusal and the finding that the goods identified by the
`parties are related and commonly travel in the same channels of trade.
`
`
`
`Accordingly, the request is denied.
`
`
`
`The filing of a request for reconsideration does not extend the time for filing a proper response to a final
`Office action or an appeal with the Trademark Trial and Appeal Board (Board), which runs from the date
`the final Office action was issued/mailed. See 37 C.F.R. §2.64(b); TMEP §715.03, (a)(2)(B), (a)(2)(E), (c).
`
`
`
`If time remains in the six-month response period to the final Office action, applicant has the
`remainder of the response period to comply with and/or overcome any outstanding final
`requirement(s) and/or refusal(s) and/or
`to file an appeal with
`the Board.
` TMEP
`§715.03(a)(2)(B), (c). However, if applicant has already filed a timely notice of appeal with the
`Board, the Board will be notified to resume the appeal. See TMEP §715.04(a).

`on gloves to keep you — and those around you — safe. That’s why we have durable and reliable glove optiom for every person, no matter what their

`allergies or another unusual requirement. our abundant supply of assorted gloves makes it easy for you to find exactly what you need. We even
`carry gloves sized for children too.
`What are the benefits of safety graves?
`The technology that exists today makes it easy to create gloves that have a range of useful features. Some of today: gloves are able to resist
`punctures by needle: fend off flames thanks to bui|t—in fire—retardation properties and even protect the hands from heavy impacts.
`Functional as the human hand may be, without the proper protection, it is unable to withstand the demands of some grueling work environments.
`Everydayjob demands make it necessary for some people's hands to be continually gloved in order to avoid the risk of injury. Hands are
`vulnerable to an array of injuries that can be circumvented merely through the use of gloves. It always makes sense to have the correct pair of

`How to pick the perfect pail of safety gloves
`When choosing gloves for your needs. there are a few guidelines and tips to always remember. First and foremost. understand that gloves are
`intended to serve varied purposes Do not assume that a heafl-d my glove will have the necessary flexibility you need to perform certain duties as
`part of yourjob. Similarly, a flexible and breathable glove may not work well if it is needed for heavy—duty work
`Another vital component of picking the right glove is about understanding how it will be used. Knowing which features in a glove you won't need
`can bejust as vital as knowing which features in a glove you will need. You can't always have the foresight necessary to spot gloverelated
`problems in advance, however. So if you feel that the glove that you're using for yourjob isn't performing as you had hoped it would, it's never too
`late to switch to a glove with different a different feature profile. It may end up being a worthwhile changeover. The perfect gloves are an
`investment that's not worth comprom'
`'ng on — you may be risking the safety of your hands when you fail to have a we||—se|ected set of gloves.
`Work gloves aren't designed to be fashionable. They're purpose—bui|t for the workers of the world who can't risk their safety (or the safety of
`others) on thejob. At Enviro Safety Products, we don't believe they should have to, either Work gloves are a precautionary measure designed to
`neutralize work hazards before they have an opportunity to cause harm or injury.
`Don't you want the best available protection for your hands?
`At Enviro Safety Producs, we carry a wide range of workgloves for every potential work-related need. Our gloves have the capacity to be used in
`a diverse set of applications, fromyobs that require dexterous hand movement to others that will test the strength of our gloves. No matter how
`you plan to test these gloves, we're confident that they will meet all of your requirements. We carry disposable gloves, leather gloves, cut resistant
`gloves, gloves for police, welding gloves and many other types of gloves. Whether you're looking for a glove that will let you safely workg
`extreme heat or you need one that will keep your hands secure while handling unsafe ob'ects we have an option foryou. Pairour high—
`temperature gloves with one of our flame-resistant shirts to get the ultimate in on-the-job safety.
`Don't let another day go by without the right form of protection for your hands. Having a we||—se|ected pair of work gloves can actually improve
`your performance on thejob by allowing you to workwithout the riskof injury lingering in your mind. And somegloves, like our an '
`ibration
`
`gloves, can actually make you more productiveon thejob. Our line of anti—vibration gloves is designed to reduced arm fatigue while handling
`Dower tools. allowing you to work harder and longer.
