Original Note:
“Koozie” is an example of a “genericized trademark”. A brand name that, because of its popularity, has become the generic term for a product, usually against the intentions of the trademark's owner. Thus, only products made by Koozie may be legally sold as such. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Koozie#Name,_origin,_and_trademark_dispute
