		<description>Mizuno running shoes, Cosabella, REI, and the C9 running gear they sell at Target.  Oh, and Escada for the perfume they put out every year that smells like fruit punch.&lt;p class=&quot;top-comments&quot;&gt;current votes: &lt;span class=&quot;top-comments-karma&quot; id=&quot;karma-17749&quot;&gt;0&lt;/span&gt; &lt;small&gt;(to vote for this comment, please visit the site)&lt;/small&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>I like Levi&#039;s, Nike, Adidas, J Crew, Sony, Timberland and Northface.  However, the one brand that really toots my horn is &quot;No Brand&quot; or &quot;Muji&quot; in Japanese, they got everything looking good: &quot;google that shit, holmes.&quot;&lt;p class=&quot;top-comments&quot;&gt;current votes: &lt;span class=&quot;top-comments-karma&quot; id=&quot;karma-17737&quot;&gt;0&lt;/span&gt; &lt;small&gt;(to vote for this comment, please visit the site)&lt;/small&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>I&#039;m a complete sucker for Marc Jacobs handbags. I used to be happy with any old bag, and then I found a cute inexpensive $78 tote bag. As I purchased more they got more and more expensive, and now here I am thinking about the next bag I want, and the $800+ price tag doesn&#039;t seem that bad.  :( I never wanted to be that person! I also love Diesel jeans. I swear they make my butt look better. Other than that, the rest of me looks like a total slob. I have a hoodie with holes in it that I wear everyday, and old high top vans I&#039;ve had for years.&lt;p class=&quot;top-comments&quot;&gt;current votes: &lt;span class=&quot;top-comments-karma&quot; id=&quot;karma-17733&quot;&gt;0&lt;/span&gt; &lt;small&gt;(to vote for this comment, please visit the site)&lt;/small&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>Phil reminded me of Nokia.  
I once had to use a Motorola for a couple months.  I hated it so much that I used my phone the least possible.  I refused to memorize the phone programs yet I was so mad when it took forever to text.  
I&#039;m so stubborn.&lt;p class=&quot;top-comments&quot;&gt;current votes: &lt;span class=&quot;top-comments-karma&quot; id=&quot;karma-17730&quot;&gt;0&lt;/span&gt; &lt;small&gt;(to vote for this comment, please visit the site)&lt;/small&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>i seem to be pretty loyal to clover organic milk products (milk, cheese, eggs, cottage cheese) and i&#039;d like to say it is because of it being a regional dairy but i think it&#039;s more likely that they won me over with their stellar advertising - i loved their billboards growing up, you know, like &quot;Claude Moonet&quot; or &quot;Supreme Quart&quot; or Venus de Moolo&quot; or &quot;it ain&#039;t Clover til the fat lady sings&quot;  or &quot;Clo&#039;s encounters of the curd kind&quot;&lt;p class=&quot;top-comments&quot;&gt;current votes: &lt;span class=&quot;top-comments-karma&quot; id=&quot;karma-17729&quot;&gt;0&lt;/span&gt; &lt;small&gt;(to vote for this comment, please visit the site)&lt;/small&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>As long as I can afford to buy them,  Apple Computers...  The last 50 pairs of socks I have bought have been Smart Wool.  I have over 400,000 miles on United Airlines.

		<description>Rockport shoes, Levis jeans, Pendleton shirts. Toyota trucks! 

Makes me realize that brand loyalty is for me about durability + nostalgia. Good question, totally thought I wouldn&#039;t have any...&lt;p class=&quot;top-comments&quot;&gt;current votes: &lt;span class=&quot;top-comments-karma&quot; id=&quot;karma-17725&quot;&gt;0&lt;/span&gt; &lt;small&gt;(to vote for this comment, please visit the site)&lt;/small&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>Jif.  I will buy just about anything else in its generic form, but peanut butter.  I know it&#039;s certainly not the healthiest or the most natural, but I love its smooth, creamy deliciousness.&lt;p class=&quot;top-comments&quot;&gt;current votes: &lt;span class=&quot;top-comments-karma&quot; id=&quot;karma-17724&quot;&gt;0&lt;/span&gt; &lt;small&gt;(to vote for this comment, please visit the site)&lt;/small&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>
