  • Nice price. Shame it's got the big O2 on the front. I don't like being a walking advert for companies.

    Do what they do on TV and get a load of gaffer tape and tape over the big logo :D !

    Know what you are saying, but why not look at the way I do? Seriously, would 'ordinary people' like me and thee seriously cause people to go out and buy an O2 sim because they saw us wearing a shirt emblazoned with their logo? So, in effect, it's very ineffective advertising....:D
    I spelt my username wrongly on purpose, by the way!

    Great spot thanks!.... wear it around the house for those who are complaining about logo ...then only your cat will be influenced by the logo and go out to buy a mobile!

    Surely its about brand strengthening.. not direct advertising..
    and the fact that you know O2 offer sims suggests it has worked?!

    Off topic though.. but thanks to the OP. Got me one too!

    If we could only instill that ethos into our chilrden perhaps they would settle for more reasonably priced items and would not be 'shunned' by their fellow peers because they or their parents could not afford designer labels.
    Have a good look at most clothing...would you really buy designer top price clothing if it didn't show the label...after all, what's the point in buying 'class' if no-one else can identify it as such....sorry off my soapbox now.

    In a word. yes! In fact, I'd be more prone to purchase 'designer' clothing if it had a more discreet label.

    I really can't stand clothing with large 'Bench' or 'Nike' logos on them and in my opinion, for what it's worth, a large logo makes clothing look cheap.

    The clothing itself maybe good quality, but I will not buy it if it has a huge logo emblazoned across the front.

    I leave that for the chav types who wanna to look better off than they actually are.

    Class?

    Crass, more like! Let's face it if you buy 'Designer' clothing, shouldn't the quality of the item be more important than whether others approve of it?

    Stepped off my soapbox now. ;)
