I get your point and I have seen that Marauder jacket for quite some time on the Bay. In this case, I am of the opinion that this particular jacket represents probably an owners group for a Suzuki Marauder motorcycle.I think mfg's are largely responsible for any negative perception. I saw a beautiful and heavy leather jacket on the bay last week that I'd love to have but won't buy because it has the name Marauder embossed in the leather right on the front of the jacket. There are several other models of jacket that take names intended to indicate that the wearer at least doesn't feel like a complete knob wearing a jacket labeling him as a dirtbag. Marauder, Vandal, Wildcat, Storm, Mission, Hardcore, Highwayman, Drifter, or a particular fave the ladies' Villainess, etc. Why not a Rapist version or another with Pencil Dick emblazoned across the the sleeve or lapel?
Someone thinks this kind of marketing has merit and thinking out loud, if you have one of these in your closet you're supporting this kind of BS. On some level maybe there's something to the man's comment.
Did I just ruin a jacket for anyone?
