[Misc] To what brands are you loyal?

[Stat Brother]

Possibly the first opportunity for a nice bit of 'closed season look at me', but having just glanced at the 'they'll never take me alive' advertising thread, which brands do have you handing over your cash?

Don't worry @Bozza I've got you covered - Apple!

 

[Titanic]

Makita, Stihl and Bosch.

One of my favourite drinks is lime juice and sparkling water. I drink it all year round. And the lime has to be Roses Lime Cordial. They can charge a fiver a bottle for all I care, it is so superior to all the others.

I'm partial to Adidas trainers (apparently "Adidas" was my first word, oddly)

 

[Biscuit Barrel]

Stihl, John Baker Baits and Kitchenaid.

Can this apply to simply preferring a product over a competitors? For example Branston’s beans are king, Hellman’s mayonnaise, HP sauce…

Purely for brands, Sony never let me down.

 

[BNthree]

Nike trainers. Everything else is negotiable

 

[Bakero]

Me too. This year I branched out and got some Pumas. They look good but they don't quite fit right.

 

[Knightsworld]

Adidas for trainers.

Fred Perry.

Levi 501's

 

[Bozza]

Apple - tech stuff.
Nike - running shoes and gear.
Encona - chilli sauce to put on, well, pretty much everything.
Coke Zero - Pepsi products can do one.
Brighton & Hove Albion - football.

 

[RandyWanger]

I have. a few 'go to' brands for things, probably a right fanboy in some ways.

Carhartt Wip, Saxx, Stance, Nike (trainers only)

Apple fanboy too (and make my money using them)

I tend to find stuff that works, fits well and I like and then just stick with it. I will have the same jumper in 3 colour ways for instance and I will do the same if I find a pair of jeans that fit well.

Agreed generally, except Apple Tango which is increasingly rare now anyway.

I do occasionally dabble with some exotic Fanta Zero products. Without looking, I think Fanta comes under the Coke umbrella too.

 

[jcdenton08]

Another thing I discovered actually, tangentially related, is I like to buy the product the brand specialises in and give their other secondary products a wide berth. Eg Levi’s jeans but not their shirts, a Dyson vacuum but not their fans, that sort of thing.

 

[Farehamseagull]

Adidas.

 

[Hamilton]

Harvey’s

 

[Hamilton]

First Direct
Monzo
Jump the Gun
Dr Martens
Apple
Resident Records
The Basketmakers

 

[Mustafa II]

Nike trainers are the best.

Joseph and Joseph does genuinely high quality and sometimes innovative kitchen and bathroom stuff. British brand.

Samsung seems to be the best quality entry level electronics brand out there.

Beans! Heinz FFS, like ketchup.

Agreed, Gucci do not make watches, nor Mercedes make aftershave. I have one exception though, Mont Blanc Traveller Eau de Parfum.
