What I’ve observed recently is about how around five per cent of people are currently wearing a shirt with the name Patagonia on it. Last month there were none and now they’re everywhere. Why?
Because they speak Welsh in Patagonia, they must be Welsh (only thing I know about Patagonia and mention it everytime I see someone wearing an outfit with it written on.)
A while ago one of my colleagues expressed their outrage that as a cost-cutting measure, management were proposing to get rid of the plants on our floor. My genuine response was “…there are plants on our floor?”
If I see someone wearing an item of Patagonia clothing, I don’t speak to them. I assume that they’re the kind of person that I wouldn’t want to know. Is that wrong of me?
I thought Patagonia was one of those brands that’s meaningless, like it isn’t a brand at all. Never thought of it as a brand to judge someone by like Supreme and Beats By Dre.
I look down on all people who sport logos or brand names on their clothing, unless the brand on the clothing is a band that I like (and the person actually knows its a band and likes them too).
