This is especially true with luxury brands like Louis Vuitton, Gucci, and Prada. People are either trying to impress others with fakes, or they’ve actually paid full price to become walking billboards.

Similar thing with iPhone cases that have a cutout for the Apple logo. That's just hilarious.

Yep. Some years ago, I made the decision to never wear logos or anything with a brand name on it. It's a silly thing to do and there are plenty of clothes out there that are just clothes.

I've always been this way for some reason. I even de-badged my car. Looks so clean with no model name IMO Always putting tape over the brand name on TV's and monitors, matching the bezel color of course

Is it a thing of prominence or in general? Since most clothing or most anything, really, has some form of logo on it, so maybe it's about size?

I just think it’s stupid to identify with a for profit institution.
