Which companies or brands do you love? Why?

Post by Cupz »

Just so the karma of this board doesn´t go in the negative direction...

L&M- I love L&M. Their sigarette tobacco isn´t just the cheapest, but also the best tasting in the netherlands. Combined with a perfect working cigarette maker, real L&M marked filters and the abbility to personalize your smoke makes cigs from a pack taste like grandma's ass.
There still is a good affordable way to smoke in these dark ages. Thank you L&M.

Old Spice- Both the aftershave and the regular deoderant smell like a flashback to a vacation from some childhood memory. Its the reason I shave.
Throw away your smartphone.

I love the clothing label Original Penguin. I only own one t-shirt, but the look and logo have sentimental meaning for me :P .. I didnt even realise it was a famous brand, as the shirt kinda found its way rather passivly into my life.

forgot to add Karmaloop.com - A web clothing store based in Boston, found this site a couple of months ago when i was searching for a baseball jacket, and haven't looked back since. Awesome if you're into fresh styles, streetwear and ridiculously good looking tees.

Williams and Atari for the greatest arcade videogames. Any game from Williams was such a seal of quality (Defender, Robotron, Sinistar...). The best pinballs too.

Apple for making me love computers again.

Fender guitars. My battered old Jazzmaster is still the most beautiful thing I own.

I love Axe, just because it makes me feel smooth. My girlfriend loves Dark Temptation, the chocolate smelling one.

Clark's and Asics, I've always liked those shoes. It's cool having favs like that which are so easy to find. Especially with the Tigers, they are fairly popular now. When one pair wears out (though Clark's take a few years) you already know what to replace em with.

Subway, now if only they delivered.

Although I don't drive one, Honda, it really is a car that you can't go wrong with. Seems like so many people I knew in school had one with 200k+ miles on it and still running just fine.

J Crew, manages to have off the rack button-up shirts that fit me great. No extra money spent on tailoring. And they aren't that expensive when on sale.

Coca-Cola. Have any of yall been to their museum in Atlanta? It's pretty cool.

Oakley - I appear to own shares in them.

Sony - ditto - and advertising's had nothing to do with it.

Samsung - TVs anyway. Do what they say and do it well and reliably.

The BBC. Always the ultimate brand to me, even with their numerous flaws.
I'll see you when the sun sets east, don't forget me.
