MASSIVE LOGO's on all shorts/fightwear

What is the problem with clothing manufacturers these days? Do they really think people want to wear shorts with SPRAWL, and NOGI, etc. splashed across them in HUGE letters???

I really like some of their products but i think they should take a "minimalist" approach for the most part. I think this would actually work much better for a "timless" type of styling.

Why can't they just design something that has great functionality with very simple and "low key" graphics??? I know they would answer that they want to advertise their products. But in reality, I think most people would buy MORE of their products if we had a lot more options of a simple low key design that doesn't SHOUT when you wear it. Maybe just a very small and subtle logo somewhere on the shorts that wasn't blatantly visible, or one that was in a color that blended in with the shorts as opposed to being neon orange or something like that.

are you listening Sprawl, NoGi, etc. etc.?????

Inspirit has some pretty low key fight shorts and i hear good things i mean if you hate logos there are options some people like to show off what they buy though, same reason cars have hood orniments and brand logos on them

FCF has shorts with and without big logos, so you can choose.

Ispirit has some nice, low key stuff as well.

Actually, quite a few people do. They want to look like the fighters or want the shorts that the fighters wear.

You can get Sprawls and FCFs with the big logo or a smaller one. The only Nogi shorts that have the big logo are the OG. If you're willing to wear white board shorts, I don't think you'll mind a big logo.

I am hoping he was talking about the OTHER company becase we are as low pro as you can get. Even on the OE where it is big on the ass it is Hollow so it isn't even that noticeable. The other shorts have a small 1.5 inch but 4 inches and a small O. And one is embroidered Black on Black. I do however think it is funny for the OTHER company that has it on there 5 times LARGE. What if you needed other sponsors on there? No luck...

Seven times on this pair. Walking billboard stuff.



Sprawl's non competition shorts have the logo on them three times, once on the waistband, one on either leg however one is on the back and one is on the front. I don't think that is too overkill.

I think Sprawl is like ours but we don't even have the waist band and yes the 7 is a bit much

On a side note....Since we started offering the "Competition" style (MORE LOGOS), we've had tons of orders for them.

To each his own. I prefer the low-pro myself.
