Heyo Guys, I've got an exam in philosophy and i need your help.

What's the purpose of wearing clothes with a "great" mark and preferring it from the other clothes ?!

- Is it for following in the trend ?

- Is it for followin with the crowd ?

- Is it for having an identity, to step out the crowd ?

- Is it to have a position onto the social group ?

Thanks in advance for answering. and please just tick one of the following answer (don't come up with any other ;)) cause i'm doing a poll ! :P

Look at the sun and the shadow shall fall behind you...

I buy the clothes I like. Not all the expensive clothes are off great value... if you know what I mean.

If the quality is good then it does not matter for me if it's known brand...

I buy what I like and what makes me feel good. And that doesn't have to cost a lot of money.

Ree - it feels better because of a better cut. Do a test - go to the "Brands" store in "The center" and try out one of their suits, then get out and try one of the suits at the Modern Home liquidation store, which is just at the exit from Brands. In a Joop or Van Laack suit you can just walk away, while Brands suit will make you feel as if you are being twisted and torn in your own body. Same with shoes etc. A good leather belt or bag will serve you for decades, just looking better with time.

Btw. I hate logos, and never wear anything with logo on it, unless it is sport clothes, where a logo is inevitable.

Herne - any social group which requires you to wear brand name clothes in order to be accepted is not worth affiliating with.

The reason I buy branded/designer clothing is again as per Terramax, quality and durability and also "fit" and "style" Better designs and for some reason it just feels better.

Also not a massive fan of the huge logos!

For the above in addition to Terramax’s point.

I like certain big brands, especially for sportswear and sunglasses. But if the logo is big I resent buying this article and look for another from the same brand. I'm not a walking Ad.

Unless the tag says I LOVE EGYPT..:))

Happy New Year

I buy clothes if it looks good and feels nice.

I'd only buy clothes with the logo showing if I was buying that brand anwyay.

So if I had a shirt with a small Gucci logo on it or one without, I'd take the one with the small logo (I hate HUGE logos), because my logic is "I'm spending the money anyway, might as well show off a bit".

At the end of the day I only buy what I like.

You've missed the most important answer option - quality and durability.
