Enough with the logos

[jamespowers]

Perhaps I should have pulled it out of the garage first!!!

Did the garage have logos on it?

Yes...

Up until a moment ago.

Up until a moment ago.

My job here is done then.

My job here is done then.

I gather this little witty exchange means I'm out of the act then?

Small embroidered logos like the Izod 'gator never bothered me. It's the huge ones plastered on items nowadays that looks retarded.

Izod

I'm positive that the Izod alligator is where it all started. The thing about it was that it was an "in" thing, maybe back in the late 50's, early 60's. A sign of sophistication because it was "European". Then, I believe. Yves St Laurent started intentionally making the logo the selling point in the early 70's. I guess in this crazy world where you can't tell the AC's from the DC's, having those little tribal markings gives people as sense of belonging. Actually, not so different from belonging to Fedora Lounge. But we're not obnoxious about it, right, gang? But the current logo mania, to me, really indicates intense insecurity by the wearers.
