Labels don't mean much to me. Quality of manufacture is important. I concur with Baldrick regarding shoes. For the longest time I was consistently buying dress shoes from cheap outlets. They would wear out within a year or two and were rarely comfortable. Then I found Rockports. I love em. Quality shoes are important to me as they need to support my weight comfortably. Cheap shoes just don't hold up. I recently bought a pair of Rockport casual style shoes, the price was a bit more than I'd pay for a pair of Reebock or Nike, but I can already tell they are well worth the extra money.
If someone judges me by the clothing labels I wear, they can go right ahead. I just won't have much respect for the person.
