To drainyoo. I hate wearing brandnames. I don't want to be someone's walking ad unless I'm paid for it. I certainly don't want to pay to be someone's walking advertisement. It is both aesthetically nicer and personally more satisfying to avoid branding. This next bit may come out sounding aggressive, but it's not meant that way: I don't particularly need you to understand, it's just something that I prefer. I don't expect you to feel the same way, or want to make you think the same, I just don't like branding. I don't own a single item of clothing (except for gym clothes) with branding, and I'd like to get my bike to be that way as well.
I am with you theetruscan I am wide enough across the shoulders to make a decent billbaord if they want to use me as such there going to give me the shirt or jacket And I'm damn sure not going to pay extra for it
Branding is more than just an advertisement.
Please explain?

I can live with a small brand name logo I.E carhart or levi tag I won't tolerate stuff that covers half the garment like old navy crap
