I hate this rationalization so much! I swear I've heard this argument word for word four times at my store this week and I completely disagree.The argument can be made using other brands and someone has scripted this and it is such a bs canned answer like how many logos has Pepsi had over the years? I understand the rationalization and I'm not going to change anyone's mind by bitching and complaining. The style that's going to suffer the most from this change is the Holbrook and possibly a couple of others but I say Holbrook because it's my all time favorite. Oakley premiered the square O around 10 years ago or so and at the time it turned a lot of heads and got a lot of flak but the brand has grown around it and embraced it. Oakley wants to talk about evolving the brand and what we are going to do next but they had a lot of success with the new logo and I disagree about them getting rid of it but my first pair was a pair of Gascans so you could say I've grown up with it, I'm a bit young but still. Also, I know this was from early February but I couldn't pass by this without saying something.Think of it this way.
Does Nike have DIFFERENT "swooshes"?
Does Under Armour have DIFFERENT "X"s?
The thought is why would a company have so many different "symbols" to identify ONE single company?
This is where there normally would be a mic drop but I don't use a mic cause I talk too loud and don't need one.
