Our favourite labels and brands

[Flick of the Elbow]

Inspired by the training shoe thread, https://www.cyclechat.net/threads/training-shoe-snobbery.176282/, what are our favourite labels/brands ?
I'm proud to be as uncool as it's possible to be, my wardrobe is dominated by Rohan. And Clarks shoes. But I am very proud of my Swarovski binoculars

My wardrobe is dominated by George from Asda, Crane from Aldi and unbranded rags from a range of Internet retailers. I broke free from the tyranny of top brands in clothing in my late teens.

I like my Brompton folder.

But not as much as I like my Woodrup Chimera or as much as my butler fancies your Bob Jackson

I'm a wearer of the Salomon approach shoe. They're comfy and they last ages.

My tailors would never do anything as vulgar as a putting a label on my clothes.

Heinz beans. It's just how it is.

Altura, proper UK sizing, not too expensive and reasonable quality

I also have some DHB stuff which is ok but seems to vary a lot with fit and sizing

Yes, but I expect you have a maker's name on your watch ? Patek Philippe perhaps ?

Nokia.

I'd not do anything as vulgar as visiting my tailor. I send my butler over with my measurements.

I don't have a butler. My needs are split amongst my entourage.

Seriously, I thought tailored clothing went out of fashion years ago. You could spot tailored clothings a mile away. No doubt the material may usually be more expensive but the cutting is way off in fashion terms.

I'm usually kitted out in Next sale clothing, although not the SP rubbish as is falls apart in your hands. Sports wear is usually Adidas, especially Samba and Super Samba trainers.

Yeah - me too, Vernon...or at least, my body did. George blue T shirts are perfectly mis-shapen for my contours too.

For motorcycle protection I was a top brand buyer as its about quality and performance in a crash.ie a 250quid boot with extensive moto gp testing will be better than the 30 quid ebay special.
I like a bargain in most cases but quality is often cheaper in the long run.
I love sainsbury jeans and most of there clothes ,tesco not so good , I have a aldi bike tool kit which cost 17quid and does most things I need as a boot tool kit when out with the car and bike rack.
I like my Commencal Meta got that for a steel from crc half price
I loved my ping clubs
and my Fiat van.lol cheap and cheerful suprisingly goob van.
