ive always felt this way about clothing brands. they dont do anything except make clothes, so why am i buying a shirt with their logo on it? if i bought a shirt with a TV show or a video game on it, at least i would be supporting an actual thing, but clothing brands just make clothes. they dont even do anything. why are they popular?

Status symbols and some people literally have too much money.

I used to religiously buy the Roots brand in Canada because their clothes were made in Canada and their quality used to be great.  But lately they've outsourced their clothes to 3rd world countries and their quality suffered as a result.  I no longer buy the brand and when I see the name in the wild, I chuckle thinking 'you just paid $150.00 for the same quality sweater that Walmart sells for $20'.
