What you said above has some truth, but there are also misunderstandings. Authentic products are not identified by it. In addition to the two patterns you mentioned, shoes also have TM logos. In China, trademarks The TM on the mark also has its own special meaning. In fact, the TM mark does not protect the trademark. It is different from R. TM means that the trademark has been applied to the National Trademark Office, and the National Trademark Office has also issued an "Acceptance Notice" "Book" has entered the opposition period, which can prevent others from filing repeated applications and also means that existing trademark holders have priority to use the trademark. That is the protection of property rights. R stands for registered trademark. The circle R is the mark of "registered trademark", which means that the trademark has been applied for registration with the National Trademark Office and has been reviewed and approved by the Trademark Office to become a registered trademark. The R in the circle is the first letter of English register. So it was an early product. The manufacturers of the goods were different, the sales directions were different, and the labels were different. Those with the TM logo are mainly for export, and those without R are usually overseas versions, such as those made in Japan. I hope it can be helpful to you! ! !
