Why do people feel the need to wear clothing with huge logos on them?

labbby · 16 Dec 2019 at 13:29

I don’t have logos on any of my shell suits.

I'm not a fan of big logos on clothes myself, it's personal preference though.

I don't mind what brand I buy, as long as it's good quality and looks nice, the more subtle the logo the better for me.

With a statement like that, you'd best post some pics of yourself up, show us what 'real fashion' is, kid...

Friend of mine had one of their jackets in the late 90s. He got mugged a lot because people thought he's the type to be carrying loads of cash...

Well I never!

Admittedly I only knew about them a decade or so ago when i was after some cheap jeans. They even came with a, not so Gucci, free belt!

You leave my humongous JNCO jeans that are all ripped up at the bottom where I tread on them with my huge boat-like Osiris skate shoes, my wallet chain, chrome ball necklace thingy and baggy Kobain-esque striped jumper that is equally tatty due to the DIY thumb holes I cut in it OUT OF THIS, you MONSTER

Nothing I wear that isn't to do with fitness has an obviously visible logo. You should be able to tell the quality of a thread from how it feels and wears. Don't need a showy logo? Does a fine suit or waistcoat have a logo showing who made it? No!

Sort it out.

D.P. · 16 Dec 2019 at 14:23

i assumed they get paid for the advertising?

Pyr0m@nI@]{ · 16 Dec 2019 at 14:32

I was just about to say, clothes with large logos should be discounted for the advertising

randomshenans · 16 Dec 2019 at 14:51

You go back to sorting your eyebrows.

I wouldn't have said they're anything special. It was only summat like £80 back then, IIRC... but this was in Watford, so it might as well have been £180!

This isn't exactly a nice suit, is it?

"Doo doo do-doo doo........ Nice suit. John Phillips, London... [grins]... I have two myself. Rumor has it Arafat buys his there".

I have quite a lot of t-shirts with large logos on them saying things like Metallica, Slipknot, Nirvana, Black Sabbath etc. Does this make me a chav too? Or is only certain logos/brands that get classed as chav? Any chance of sharing the list of what is and isn't chav?
