It is notable that Coach does not own and it doesn’t appear Coach or any predecessors ever tried to federally-register the non-verbal element of its horse-drawn carriage logo, do you suppose the principles set forth in Section 1207.01(c) of the TMEP explain why?
“When the marks at issue are both design marks, the similarity of the marks must be decided primarily on the basis of visual similarity. E.g., In re Vienna Sausage Mfg. Co., 16 USPQ2d 2044, 2047 (TTAB 1990). In this situation,

See, e.g., In re United Serv. Distribs., Inc., 229 USPQ 237 (TTAB 1986) (holding mark consisting of a design featuring silhouettes of a man and woman, used in connection with distributorship services in the field of health and beauty aids, and mark consisting of a design featuring silhouettes of a man and woman, used in connection with skin cream, likely to cause confusion).”
