Big ole ugly logos

  A post I was looking at about a Knight and Hale Chest Rig made me go look it up.
While the [product looks usable the first thing I notice is this big Knight and Hale logo right out front and one also on the back.
This is a pet peeve of mine. Why the heck do manufacturers have to put that junk on their products.
  I mean why even make it in bottomland at all? I want to blend and I want my gear to blend also. This is just one example . I see it on every product out there.  If I was on the hook about purchasing this product then the logo alone kills it for me. Rant over

I am not a fan of the big logos at all myself, I have a black shirt I took a black permanent magic marker to because it had a white logo on the chest that almost glowed when looking into the blind with a friend wearing it. The company wants to advertise their product and I understand that, but when they go this big it is ridiculous, I would rather sell by word of mouth.

Right now you see a lot of people waxing nostalgic, so they want the color camo they grew up with, many of them think it is the best ever made, I pretty much think it is junk myself, does not work well with most trees in my area, I have 3 or 4 that it would work with but other that those it is useless in my area. I understand it works very well with many trees in the South though.

No more than that logo is on that rig , it's not going to interfere with you turkey hunting ..

Nomad clothing sure likes to print their name or the nwtf logo all over their products

If something like that bothers you, life is good. Good grief.

That's kinda like having Ford or Chevy logo on a truck. Just part of it.

My family makes fun of me at times. I hate stickers, warning labels etc. I'll Peel them off of something I buy almost instantly.

I don't like the big logos on clothes either but I can put up with it if it's something I like.

Gun manufacturers stamping logos on a gun slide bothers me. I know what I bought. I don't need huge letters on the slide.

Car dealership stickers or license plate frames get removed instantly.
If I'm gonna advertise for them they should pay me...not happening.

I even take fishing line, remove the chrome Tacoma and 4x4 stick on stuff off the cab and tailgate. Just prefer the clean look.

Remove reflectors and stickers off my motorcycles...just me I guess.

I take a sharpie and black out any brightly colored logos on any turkey hunting attire I buy. I try my hardest to buy ball caps with no logo which is hard to due but ive managed to be able to find one here and there. some attire at least has black or dark logos....but a lot doesn't. the cotton pants and shirt ol tom used to make had a white logo on the chest pocket and on the pants pocket. I always blacked it out. the nwtf patch on my alps vest...yep..any of the bright colors I blacked out, along with the alps logo. does a turkey see it? no... could they see it? perhaps...I was raised to hunt as if they could, so I cover it up. I tuck my mask inside my shirt and button the top button. unnecessary? probably...I don't take any chances. I work to hard for the moment of truth for anything in my control to mess up my hunt....obviously I see people all the time with logos, no masks, etc.. killing turkeys. That aint me though.

I agree logo's can be pain on some items .. never understood why the Tom Teaser bag had bring orange logo on the bag itself .. that's why i wouldn't buy one of them along with some nice realtree camo with the bright orange logo's etc... black sharpie does come in mighty handy ...

I totally agree-if you're going to put your logo on make it the same color as the camo.

Ugly logos and white on the inside or inside of pockets. Hate it.

I thought I was the only one that knew the fishing line trick. I agree car dealer is going to pay me to advertise!!!
