Some of you have a zero tolerance policy when it comes to wearing logos. And most of us who aren’t quite zero tolerance (and in some cases, consider some logos even to be a guilty pleasure), we get it. Totally understand that you don’t want to be a walking billboard. But if you’re really zero tolerance, do you rip the red Levi’s Tag from the back of your jeans? What about your watch? Do you put a small square of electrical tape over the brand’s marque, like it’s a busted VCR flashing 12:00?
Logos are everywhere, and sometimes an otherwise well fitting & good looking garment gets ruined by that brand’s desire to advertise itself post-purchase. But often the logo is barely noticeable or so timeless that it’s not that big of a deal.
So where do you draw the line? What’s bragging, what’s tacky, and what’s just fine? For purpose of getting to the bottom of this, here’s a starting point. The obnoxious logos are to the left, and the more accepted and/or more ignorable logos to the right. The not often used Banana Republic Elephant and Armani Eagle sit on the fence:
