credonaut: Ha, I can see what you mean, when there’s a lot of them together it kind of looks like a bunch of sperm cells… The thread is easy to modify though. Anyway, nothing wrong with sperm cells…? There’s a new business being born when the designer and spreadshirt come together (better leave it at that, haha).
Jana Eggers: I was thinking about justifying the text with the square, but it didn’t work quite as well. It looked a bit unstable, like it’s about to collapse (now it’s more like it has a base where the logo rests). Also, I think it looks more interesting that way, it kind of separates the logo and the slogan a bit, instead of it being a big “lump”.
Also, I like to keep things simple (colourwise and other). I think it looks cool, plus that way things won’t look dated in a year or two!
To me it looks like a sewing company. In my opinion it is a confusing of the word label meaning tag and label meaning brand (which should be the case for this company if I get it right).
I don’t see the confusion here. Clearly the tag is a symbolic representation of label (which I suspect is the case in the four other logo designs here that use tag in some form).
I am sorry that I only pointed this out in your logo, its the same with the others. Dont you understand what I mean? Is the tagline not supposed to mean “its your own brand” but showing a label is telling you “its your own tag”?
I understand what you mean.
But again, it’s symbolic. The old spreadshirt logo had a fingerprint in it, that was symbolic, too. It didn’t mean that Spreadshirt was a crime lab.
The tag here represents the idea of having your own label/brand. There is no explicit visual code for a brand, that’s why one has to use symbolic approach. This is not a revolutionary idea, in fact I think most of the logos are symbolic rather than literal.
The stitched label, ah yes. But somehow the string reminds me rather of a … hm, well … male monocellular transporter of Y-chromosomes, so to speak.
I am big fan of this! I like the stacked version.
Wonder if some more color could (should?) be added?
Also, in the stacked version should “your own label” be justified with the square?
Thank you both for your comments!

Agreeing with Jana Eggers, stacked is better and with adjusted claim. No more colors needed, prefer the orange version.
