Filing in Class 23
Strictly raw textile input — spun yarn and sewing thread before it becomes fabric or a finished garment. Finished textile goods made from that yarn move to Class 24 (fabric, linens) or Class 25 (clothing), so a yarn brand and a knitwear brand under related names would typically need different classes even if they're the same company.
The USPTO charges a base application fee of $350 per class under the current fee schedule (as verified on 2026-07-07) — Class 23 is billed the same as every other class. Standard base fee under the 2025 fee schedule, filed via the USPTO Trademark Center. To keep that base fee, use pre-approved wording from the USPTO’s ID Manual to describe your goods rather than a custom description, which triggers a surcharge. See the full USPTO fee schedule for current figures.
In practice, businesses filing in Class 23 often also need Class 24 (Textiles & linen) and Class 26 (Sewing & trims) — run a search across all of them before filing, not just this one.
