Why are people willingly walking around with a large logo on their sweatshirt saying "OLD NAVY" or whatever. As consumers didn't we already pay with money for the item? Why the heck are we giving so many companies free advertising? Same with children's backpacks with a huge Superman, disney or Spongebob....why? Is it me or is this thing annoying? As smart consumers shouldn't we avoid products like this?

Alot of it is "status symbol". To make it look like they have it made. And the
other..IS indeed free advertising. Plus, kids love winnie the pooh and batman

It is advertising. Sometimes it's campy to wear a labeled item, but usually it's not classy. Limit the number of labeled clothes you buy.

It used to be just designer names or logos on things. Now it's Disney characters, store brands, etc. I agree. I don't need people to know what brand I'm wearing.

IT IS FREE ADVERTISING FOR THOSE WHO DEFINE THEMSELVES WITH WHAT THEY OWN. IT IS SHALLOW AND SUPERFICIAL....
