This is common in lots of recreational activities. Go out to the launch ramp at a popular fishing lake some Saturday morning, and see how many guys launching flashy boats are decked out like the dudes on those fishing shows, advertising every brand of gear under the sun. Or go out to the golf course and see all the guys wearing shirts and caps with their brand of clubs.
