I just realized how odd it would be to see people walking around in brandless clothes. As odd as when someone removes all the badges from their car.
The advertising has been so prevalent for so long that it has been normalized. Fascinating.
Most of my clothes are non branded with jeans being the only meaningful exception (and band t-shirts lol)
Wearing designer brands on your sleeve is a materialism trap for poor people.
Expensive designer brands also have multiple lines, the cheapest lines have their logo printed on in bold. While the expensive lines have no branding at all. If you wear expensive designer clothing that screams out the branding then it just shows that you can’t afford the good stuff.
You mean like a suit? Like plenty of clothing, designer or not, has no branding at all.
Is it? I just checked and my current attire has no visible branding on it.
Check the back of your jeans and shoes
For both, the branding's on the inside. On a label for jeans. And on the soles for my shoes afaik. (These are some leather shoes. My sneakers do have visible branding, unfortunately.)
Interesting, I have maybe one or two pairs of jeans without a big patch on the back, it seems to be a mandatory convention for most pairs.
