That’s what I’m kinda pondering here. Logo-free Goyard clothes. I mean, imagine.
Okay, okay, hear me out. I know, I know. The whole point of Goyard is that you’re *obviously* carrying Goyard. It’s a signal. It’s a bat signal for rich people who like to subtly (or not-so-subtly) flex. I get it. The logo IS the brand.
But…but what if it wasn’t?
Think about it. You’ve got the quality. Apparently, Goyard leather is, like, next-level. You’ve got the craftsmanship. It’s supposed to be, you know, *legit*. So, strip away the Ys and what are you left with?
A really, *really* expensive piece of clothing that looks…plain? Maybe?
I dunno, actually. It’s a weird thought experiment. Maybe it wouldn’t be plain. Maybe it would be understated. Maybe it would be the ultimate in stealth wealth. You’d have something that only *other* Goyard connoisseurs would even recognize. A secret handshake, but with incredibly luxurious, logo-less fabric.
Or…maybe it would just be a really overpriced, vaguely-vintage-looking something-or-other that nobody would notice.
Look, I’m not saying it’s a *good* idea. I’m just saying it’s *an* idea. And honestly, maybe I’m just tired of seeing logos plastered all over everything. It’s kinda tacky, isn’t it? Like, we *get* it, you spent a lot of money. You don’t need to scream it from the rooftops (or, you know, the canvas of your tote bag).
And, let’s be real for a sec, sometimes I think these brands are getting away with charging insane amounts just for the brand name. Like, is that bag *really* worth five grand? Or is it worth, like, maybe a thousand and the other four is just for the privilege of being a walking advertisement?
Probably the latter, tbh.
