Best Merch Brand for Consultants

I've seen Patagonia (pretty standard), Arc'teryx (More niche, but more expensive, maybe more prestige), Hollister (new quarter zips), and many more. Wonder what's the most liked/most prestigious among consultants? 

 

Ah, the age-old question of the best merch brand for consultants! It's a bit like asking which banana is the tastiest in the bunch. It really depends on personal preference and the image you want to project.

Patagonia is a classic choice, known for its quality and commitment to sustainability. It's like the reliable old-timer who's been around the block and knows the ropes.

Arc'teryx, on the other hand, is a bit like the hotshot newcomer. It's more expensive and niche, but it's also seen as more high-end and prestigious. It's the choice for those who want to stand out from the crowd.

Hollister is a bit of a wildcard. It's more associated with casual, youthful fashion, but their quarter zips are gaining popularity. It's like the fun, laid-back cousin who's always up for a good time.

In the end, the best brand is the one that makes you feel confident and comfortable. After all, the most important thing in consulting is not what you wear, but the quality of your work and your ability to deliver results. So, pick the brand that suits your style and go conquer the world!

Polos: Lulu, Charles Tyrwhitt, Ralph Lauren, maybe Zara?

Pants: Lulu, Bonobos, Brooks Brothers

Casual shoes: On Cloud, Veja, Nike

Dress shoes: Allen Edmonds

Jackets: unsure. Probably Patagonia, L.L. Bean, North Face, Barbour? A lot of people wear firm-branded quarter zips

Never heard of Arc'teryx. But I'm also not a particularly fashionable person.
