Bah, these days people are too wound up by the brand of the clothing they wear. Its like 80% of people i know cannot live without wearing something with the word billabong or quicksilver or some other brand like that. I do wear some clothing with brands but i only have about 7 or 8 shirts with a logo of some big brand on it, my brother on the other hand will not wear anything that doesn't have a brand name on it dry.gif.

What are all you guys's opinions on clothing brands and.. whatever 1we8.gif

    screw mainstream.

    I wear what I like, and that's it.

    I'm not swayed by what's 'cool', I don't pine for something that is advertised on tv 30 million times a day.

    infact, I probably have very few popular labelled brands. sure, my clothes are a bit expensive, but that's just cuz they're comfy and I like they way they look on me.

    I refuse to wear designer labels. AE, Hollister, Abercrombie, etc.

    The last clothing articles I bought were 4 shirts at JC Penny for $4.60 each, and I'm damn proud of that fact.
    When it comes to clothing, I shop sales and go to cheap stores. It looks and fits well, so why do you need anything else?

    Clothes...i really don't care. I have a couple of stores that I go to.

    Handbags, on the other hand are diferent. I don't have a purse that isn't 9 west.

    I just like the bags...quality. Last time I checked, it wasn't a label that everyone was pining over though. lol

    I never wear brand-labeled clothes. I refuse to be a walking advertizement for a company that charges $30 for a shirt that I could easily buy for $15. It's rediculous, really. Brands like Abercrombie have become a status symbol and I refuse to be apart of it. I prefer my own style of clothes which tends to be different from others. I like the classic, not the trendy.

    I don't really don't care about brands... I usually wear jeans and plain t-shirts with quirky slogans/quotes on it.

    PS) I just checked what that Abercrombie thingy is (It's not really a known brand over here)... Honestly, I don't see why anyone would want to pay a higher price for pre-destroyed vintage jeans.

    My only concern is my shoes. They've got to be Adidas, anything else can be no-name stuff from Bluenotes or whatever.

    For the most part, I wear what I think looks good. I don't first look at the brand name, then decide what to buy - I think that's ridiculous. The clothes that I think look good often tend to be popular labels, but I buy them not because of the name, but because they look nice.

    Uh.. I wear brands all the time, but not because I want to fit in -- I just like the way they look. blink.gif

    I usually wear Aeropostale and Abercrombie, but not Abercrombie so much -- the shirtless guys and wannabe-surfer music is annoying. tongue.gif

    I wear what looks good.

    I shop at Saks Fifth Avenue
    Then I shop at Pac Sun.

    Pac Sun, Saks, Tilly's, Zumiez, American Eagle, Hollister, Abercrombie, Target. Doesn't matter, whatever I think looks good.

    I don't care if it's brand or not. If I like it, I wear it.
    Just as long as it's not Wal-Mart or Target shirts.. blink.gif

    I wear name brands, but not because I want to be like everyone else. I just think a lot of the stuff from certain brands look good on me. I'll be perfectly happy with something that looks good on me from JC Penny.

    Eh, it seems to me that some people only wear designer clothes, and others will do the EXACT opposite so they can't be labeled as the same. Did that make sense? xD Like, to me it doesn't matter, I'll wear AE jeans if I like the way they look and feel, but I'll also slap on a pair I picked up at J.C.Penny's. smile.gif

    My mom still brings me home jeans xD Some I like, others I don't... price tag doesn't even get looked at, until I decide whether I like them or not, because I don't care tongue.gif
