The brands I sometimes buy.

I buy lots of different brands, but I don’t know that I am associated with them. Sometimes I actually like unbranded things, just so I don’t look like a walking billboard. I mean, they aren’t paying me to wear a t-shirt that sports their brand.

What I’m lookin for is a product that looks good and is high quality, which usually means I get my money out of it. Some brands do seem to have one or more features that bring them to the top of my list for buying more. I mean, that’s the whole purpose of branding, so people will associate quality with your company’s products.

Below are a few brands I’ve been know to buy.

  1. Jeep – I drive a dark blue Compass Trailhawk around town.
  2. Apple – I’m an iPhone person, also like their computers.
  3. Starbucks – I drink a lot of their coffee.
  4. U.S. Polo Assn. – I mostly like their polo shirts.
  5. Columbia – Jackets, I own a couple, also like their belts.
  6. PGA Tour – I have quite a few of their golf polos.
  7. American Eagle – I like their jeans, and few shirts.
  8. Levi’s – Mostly Jeans, but I also own a denim jacket.
  9. Adidas – Athletic shoes, t-shirts, shorts, and joggers.
  10. Under Armor – A few t-shirts and polos.
  11. Old Navy – I mostly buy their t-shirts.
  12. The North Face – I have a jacket, but I like Columbia better.

The outfit I would wear over and over.

If I had to wear the same outfit over and over again for the rest of my life, I would want it to have the parts listed below. I think these items would be comfortable enough to wear every day, and comfort is a big deal for me on most days. I really hope such a thing doesn’t happen though, because I like to mix it up sometimes. Also, not mentioned here would be under clothing, like socks and underwear.

An athletic t-shirt.

Under Armour Men’s Tech Shortsleeve T-shirt

I would want the outfit to include a comfortable athletic shirt. I would choose from one of these brands, Adias or Under Armor. I would want it to be the type of material that dries quickly, so I would remain cool during the hot summers. I would probably go with gray or blue as the color. I think I would eventually tire of other colors.

A pair of denim jeans.

Levi’s Men’s 511 Slim Fit Jeans

One item in the outfit would be a pair of denim jeans. They are just very versatile and protective, and usually remain in style. The brand I would probably choose from would be Levis or American Eagle. I’ve owned both brand of jeans and they have lasted pretty well. Levis tend to last a little longer for me though.

A pair of athletic shoes.

Adidas Men’s Grand Court Tennis Shoe

Since I’m going to have to wear this forever, I would want comfortable shoes. I would choose a pair of athletic shoes, either tennis shoes or running shoes. I personally find the Adidas brand to be the most comfortable on my feet. They are usually not too out of style and the brand is well established. I also like Vans and Converse, but they don’t have much padding on the bottom in my opinion.
