Guys leaving the name brand of the coat/suit stitched on the bottom of the sleeve

probably they just don't know any better

It's a pretty pretentious thing to do (leaving it on).

ETA: did said coworker wear hats like this?

It's the hat sticker of suits

tags = trashy
no tags = not trashy

Do you leave the stickers and tags on your hats too? I didn't think so.

remove the tag by clipping the thread on the outside, then pulling it to the inside of the sleeve. that way, any thread that was damaged when the tag was sewn on gets pulled to the inside, not out. leaving it on is dumb, unless you're minnie pearl

If you are talking about the little ribbon tag that is tacked at the sleeve cuff, I always take it off....not sure it would stay there too long due to normal wear even if you wanted it to stay...

I'm assuming they don't know better.

This is up there with assholes who don't clip the vent strings in the back...

Tag or no tag?

They are intended to be removed.

And it doesn't even make sense to leave them on. If your suit has such a tag, it's likely off-the-rack. So no matter the "brand" it's probably not that nice of a suit anyway, or at least certainly not worth bragging about.

But these are also the same kind of people who don't realize that even typically high-end fashion houses make junk lines of cheap suits for sale at J.C. Penney, or Dillards, or Men's Warehouse, or wherever. So they think those brand's labels are impressive.

Probably the same idiots who don't know to cut the stitching on their suit pockets.

They're just decorative!
