Eqivalent to a mobile billboard, so they should be paying the wearer.
Wearing brand name on you is such a bitch thing to do.
Me over here turning my free tote bags inside out, to not make ad impressions, and people ask me why.
Even better, clothes without branding are cheaper than those that are branded.
As much as I agree with the sentiment, this would only really work if the brand doesn’t specialise on branded clothing, but something that doesn’t insist on advertising itself
the one that makes me irrationally angry is the used car dealership advertising. like the decals are annoying, but the license plate covers/border things that people don’t take off.
like do you really want to be advertising chuck and donna’s used car emporium every time you drive your car?
Thats always the first thing that I do when I come home. The license plate cover comes off, the stickers come off the back window, and I tey to take the branding on the metal off without hurting the paint. If they want me to advertise they can take a grand off the price.
Woah there! A grand for a license plate cover!?
Don’t sell yourself so short. You need continuous value, like free oil changes or labor discounts.
You can tell them at the dealership.
Agreed. I said “don’t put any dealership badges on my car but put a stack of business cards in the glove box” and I gave them all out within a year.
No, but do you wanna spend five minutes taking the plate holder off for me?
You don’t have 5 minutes and yet here you are commenting?
I can poop while commenting, i cant poop while changing a plate holder lol
You can ask them to not put all that crap on your car and they will begrudgingly comply.
Tried that when I bought mine, they just slipped a license plate ad on anyways. Threw that shit out when I got home.
Still better than the decals that are installed to be permanent.
Mine are covered in Gorilla Tape. Once blacked out, the covers are quite nice.
chuck and donna’s used car emporium? hell yeah especially if they use one of those inflatable gorillas out front. it’s the standard boring

Same with clothes and grocery shopping bags.
Not even if its cheaper or free, they should pay you. I used to work at a musical instruments store and got lots of free brand shirts, I still wore them inside out to hide the logos.
The bigger the logo the less it costs. The expensive ones have usually a small well placed logo, so the post is already kinda right.
That’s always been my opinion, they should be free.
As someone who detests shirts with logos, and so buys ones without them, I’m okay with the current state of affairs. I don’t want to feel like buying a normal shirt is a premium purchase
hey guys, thrift stores are a thing, and a great way to get quality clothing for cheap.
a brand print doesnt mean better quality
YMMV.
The unbranded clothes can easily be Temu tissue-paper quality or so rough on the skin as to cause abrasions after walking around in them.
Branded clothing tend to have a higher floor, at least.
You know that the REAL quality clothes don’t have labels? The stuff you buy at a tailor never looks fancy nor dons cool labels.
Also most fashion-brands are really shitty quality, made in Bangladesh, too. Because they know people only care for labels, not real quality.

Sticking a label on a piece of clothing doesn’t change it’s quality.

Textile mills in Bangladesh produce a wide range of qualities.

No, that was my point. They do that on cheap shit, even the expensive cheap shit. In tendency ofc, there surely might be some line of some fashion-brand that isn’t crap.

Might be, but you won’t find the upper range in fashion-brands. But you’re free to replace Bangladesh with any other cheap slave-country that produce clothes for us.
They do that on cheap shit
Polo puts the polo brand on everything. Ralph Lauren, GAP, etc.
I’ve got a Ralph Lauren shirt from the 1990s that I still wear because its held up so well.

Are you talking about bespoke tailoring? Even they get their fabric from Bangladesh.

Sure. And Lacoste was “made in France” at that time too. Nowadays the prices went up, the quality down. I would too, knowing people will buy it anyway, as long as my logo is on it
Are you talking about bespoke tailoring? Even they get their fabric from Bangladesh.
Well, if they do, then they lie. But I surely can’t speak for them all. And wouldn’t really matter, as they stand in for the quality for life. Anyhow, that wasn’t meant as if Bangladeshi couldn’t do good stuff. They sure could.
They also easily print logos on shitty tissue paper quality fabrics
Unless its a knockoff
But then it’s often a lot cheaper
…and possibly even better. looks at his 20yr old, still working original PANASOANIC(sic) phone
They’re currently being commercialized.
Go to local thrift or consignment stores. I’m probably living a better to do town but almost every neighborhood has their own.
Only idiots wear shorts with logos on them.
Ahh… more downvotes. Thanks in advance.
i have no idea what this comment is. is it ragebait? is it smug? is it genuine? did they anticipate the downvotes because they believe this is an unpopular opinion? did they expect more downvotes? did they mean to say shirts? do they specifically scan for shirts without logos, no matter the price? do they think everyone in public with logos on his clothes is an idiot? does he have a superiority complex?
I’ll admit that there was a time I thought only idiots wore branded clothing. Partly because advertising, but mainly because some prints age terribly while the piece of clothing itself is fine.
That was before I realised how easy it is to connect with someone because of their clothing.
Na im just lazy i know i shouldn’t be wearing them
Well, there’s shirts that don’t have a logo on them both expensive and inexpensive for varying levels of quality. The bigger brands just used them as a branding for a specific level of quality and marketing.
Isn’t the idea that the brand advertises the wearer?
Absolutely, it’s for advertising how you wish to be perceived by the people around you.
I mean those types of shirts are cheap af compared to stuff you’d get at a nice men’s clothing store…
all vehicles have big brand logos on front and back, and we all drive around like is normal
You’re free to take those off
took some bondo, sanding and spray paint, but i managed to remove the big bas-relief SATURN on the rear bumper
