Trademark & Name Use Statement

The term “Shibarbie” has appeared within the broader rope and creative community in various informal, personal, and nickname-based contexts. While we recognize and respect those organic uses, Shibarbie, LLC is the sole legal owner of the trademark “Shibarbie” in connection with commercial, branded, and business activities, including merchandise, events, educational offerings, and related goods and services.

Ownership of the trademark is intended to protect the integrity of the brand and prevent unauthorized commercial use that could cause confusion, misrepresentation, or harm to the community we are building.

Shibarbie, LLC does not seek to police or restrict personal, social, or non-commercial use of the name. Individuals who use “Shibarbie” as a nickname, social handle, or personal identifier without engaging in business, sales, or brand representation are not the focus of enforcement efforts.

In fact, we genuinely welcome connection with others who identify with the name. If you use “Shibarbie” in a personal or community context, we would love to hear from you. Our preference is always communication and collaboration over conflict, and our goal is to build relationships, not issue cease-and-desist letters.

If you currently use this name in a commercial, branded, or business capacity, or if you are unsure whether your use may fall into that category, we encourage you to reach out so we can discuss appropriate paths forward together.

Shibarbie exists to uplift creativity, community, and care and we believe the best outcomes come from working with one another.
