...with nothing but their logo on it. So you can be a literal walking advertisment but you paid them to do so. For a $8 shirt that sells for $35, but is $70 with their logo on it.

Nothing says, "I'm really dumb with money" more than sportswear that has no practical use beyond general clothing.

Express your individuality

God damn, that nails it.

I find it crazy that this comic was published in 1992. Still as relevant as back then. Maybe moreso.

TBF it has been a thing forever before that even.. mid eighties was joredash(sp?) jeans and members only jackets when I was in middle school.

This isn't even a fitness brand thing. Some fashion brands have been getting crazy on this.

Case in point, Ralph Lauren Polo shirts:

The classic Polo, small logo fine:

Errr, not sure why the logo needs to be THAT big:

"DID I YOU HAPPEN TO NOTICE I WAS WEARING POLO BRAND?!?"

All of these are real shirts and not photoshop. I just screenshot these from the company website.

What if you want to have the shirt covered in logos and walk around like a mobile billboard? Tommy Hilfiger has several solutions for you!

that bottom one, uh...

The more I look at it, the more mesmerizing the pattern is.

Definitely not a nazi symbol if that’s what you’re getting at.

[-] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 10 points 3 days ago

but it's threatening to be one

Definitely not a nazi symbol if that’s what you’re getting at.

Maybe a collab with Hugo Boss ?

[-] The_Picard_Maneuver@piefed.world 14 points 4 days ago

That's egregious, wow.

Wearing t-shirts with expensive brand logos is the only way to achieve your dreams.

Bet they don't even like horses, let alone plying hockey with them.

Uh, I'd like to counter with the people who get the fucking Monster logo painted on their cars. Like, you're that fucking proud of your energy drink of choice?

[-] saltesc@lemmy.world 1 points 3 days ago

I've never seen that. But I see a lot with some massive logo decal blocking the back window on what's definitely not a company car .
