Practice notes (J&C)
This is the core of Class 25: clothing, shirts, sweaters, coats, underwear, children's clothing, heated clothing, etc. Official note 2: “clothing” is a cross-group protected item (2501, 2502, 2503, 2504, 2505) and “waterproof clothing” (2501, 2504); note 3: underpants are similar to menstruation underwear and sanitary panties in 0506; note 4: children's clothing is similar to 2502; note 5: clothing is similar to wedding dresses in 2513.
Changes in 2026: heated clothing and heated vests were moved in from 1111 of Class 11, with note 1 amended accordingly to cross-search with 1111 in the 12th and earlier editions; “jodhpurs (clothing)” was changed to “jodhpurs”; the note to Class 25 changed “judo and karate uniforms” to “martial-arts uniforms”. A clothing brand filing “clothing” covers 2501–2505; footwear (2507), headgear (2508) and socks (2509) must be filed separately (practical tip).
