Official English notes
02-28-2013 - Although the head guards ultimately protect the user's head by dispersing impact, these goods are classified in Class 28 according to their primary function as sports padding similar to "Elbow guards [sports articles]" and "Knee guards [sports articles]," which appear in the Nice Alphabetical List in Class 28. 01-01-2016: On 01-01-2016, this 04-02-1991 entry was transferred from Class 28 to Class 9 in compliance with the Nice Classification, Tenth edition, version 2016, effective 01-01-2016. Under Nice 10-2016, head guards for sports are classified in Class 9 because they protect against serious injury and are analogous to the wording "life-saving apparatus and instruments" in the Class 9 Heading.
