I'm definitely in full dad mode at this point. I've resisted New Balances thus far, but I can see them peeking out over the horizon, a massive iceberg into which I'll inevitably crash.

Fantastic shoes, you won’t regret it. Your Significant Other, on the other hand…

Some of the surfer brands like Volcom, Reef, Lost etc sell wovens with little tiny logos on the pocket you can remove with a thread-ripper. I think that's not rare, though. Pretty sure you can even remove logos from some of the jeans. I guess I should also probably plug the lightweight pants from Club Monaco that I'm wearing right now because I don't see a logo on them. MUJI is also nice and unlabeled, still Japanese sensibility but a little more eclectic (their linen pillowcases are great).

Same for me. It took me some time to find a brand that doesn't dazzle everybody with their logo, uses the fabric and design that suits me, is durable enough and so on. I place a substantial order and forget about clothing for a few years.

What brand did you opt for over Uniqlo?

I don't believe my answer would make any sense for anybody beside me as I am a very peculiar person and chose the brand after trying dozens of others.
