Aberzombie

I saw this on MetaFilter this morning.

Don’t mistake Aberzombie.com Classic Tees for Abercrombie and Fitch. Apparently the WIPO doesn’t think you will and is letting Aberzombie.com stay as it is. The WIPO says:

‘Although “zombie” preceded by “aber” might call to mind the Complainants’ marks, especially in the context of the Respondent’s business of selling t-shirts, the Panel finds that the public would not confuse the Respondent for the Complainants, and thus Abercrombie and Aberzombie are not confusingly similar.’

Looks like I need to buy another zombie T-shirt before the decision is appealed.
