Do you watch what you wear? Apron? Uniform?

I ordered polo shirts at vist print with our name on them. They look sharp and official. DH looks awesome in them. He likes it because it's a nice look and he doesn't have to worry about what to wear. I didn't order any for me, but I'm thinking I might.
Do you wear your logo on your shirts or aprons?

No. I wear comfortable clothes. I don't think either of our physiques would look good in polo shirts. ;-)
Maybe denim shirts but we've just never gotten around to it.

Just thinking about this and may follow suit. We have long wanted to sell hoodies with a logo, but that has been on the back burner for a very long time. Would be pretty easy to get a few polo shirts for us while we're at it.

I ordered T-shirts when we first started but I don't like how they look and I don't like the fabric.
I also ordered baseball-type caps with the logo on them. I wear mine all the time.

We have polo shirts with our logo. They're pretty old and I think I'll order some more. We now have an assistant innkeeper that will start full time in October (keeping our fingers crossed on that one) and I'm definitely going to get her some shirts with our name and her name on them. It just looks more professional and we don't have to worry what she's going to be wearing when we're not here.

We had t-shirts in the beginning (price decided). As we got a bit better and smarter, went with the polo shirts. I need to order more. The collar make it look more professional. I wear my logo shirt AND logo apron. In fact, I will be wearing said apron to the Council meeting tonight as I just got a full-house (returning salesman just now called).
A %^&*(^ last year came to a Council meeting wearing an apron like mine to make fun of me. I came in (I am City Clerk), saw him, and said, "Nice apron, it just needs the Gillum House logo on it." I have photos of me with the Governor with me in my Gillum apron - it is my uniform (and I am a walking billboard). Because I was wearing it doing shopping, I was asked about and gave the commercial.

Queen of jeans here, black, grey, brown ,blue. with a 3/4 sleeve top or turtle neck tops in winter. Comphy but not creative.....
OH apron ,some times when Iam feeling very British I wear my HARRODS Knightsbridge apron.....

In this heat they just better be happy I have clothes on!

I'm afraid I'm not stylish, favorite warm weather attire is shorts and a T-shirt, quality of the T-shirt may depend on the most recent project, cold weather, flannel shirt and a sweater.

The Missus and I have Lands End polos with our logos on them. Our team wears branded t-shirts. This helps guests identify who works here, but also allows them to figure out that the Missus and I are the owners. All of us wear an apron with our name embroidered on the front during breakfast, to help our guests remember our names.

For everyday, we wear whatever suits the work we're doing. We have polos that we will wear on special occasions or when we need to look official. We have T-shirts and ball caps available for sale, but the T-shirts don't move very fast (the ball caps are more popular sellers). We do wear the T-shirts and caps ourselves often. This year we got some sweatshirts for us, which is really the most appropriate clothing for here (weather-wise) much of the time. Everyone asks us about them, so we are going to order more to sell, but determining how many of what sizes to get and keep on hand is always a problem.... We also got some embroidered fleece vests, but the color is wrong and also the embroidery isn't bold enough and doesn't stand out very well.

we ordered poloshirts for the staff as I hate when I am away where you can't tell who works there if you need something - plus I like guests to know say if they come back and there is someone in their room that they work here. We wear them sometimes as it just means its something quick and easy to put on when you are half asleep - plus DH and I take the same size so thats a saving as well - dark blue with gold writing

We originally had nicer shirts for the team members, but the inevitable bleach splashes meant white shirts were necessary.

Business casual here for us. I would like to have custom aprons made though.

Hey, people are happy enough that I'm wearing clothing, never mind fancy clothing. Scare the heck out of them if I answered the door naked.
I have been thinking of selling T-Shirts that say... I survived Generic's Jokes

I also wear the Land's End polos, t-shirts and blouses and aprons with our name and logo. I wear them with jeans or shorts. When I wear them to the grocery store, someone usually comments that they've seen or heard about my place. I also bought ball caps (also LE) for my husband, brother-in-law and my father when he was alive. Dad was a great advocate for my business, He'd wear the ball cap and a jacket that I got him and when someone would ask about it, he'd hand them a rack card that he kept in his car. In his retirement years, he worked part time delivering auto parts, so he was always out and about.
I love the aprons! My idea of a perfect apron has to have large pockets and adjustable neck strap. The Land's End stuff is awesome and comes with a guarantee. I've never been disappointed with anything I've purchased from there.

Had not occurred to us, but when we opened, a neighbor gave us two denim aprons, embroidered with our Inn name and logotype (a leaf attached to the O, in Aramis font).
These have served well, a tiny bit country dressy, and I can wear the denim OK serving breakfast; it is a little short on me and I jokingly refer to it as my French maid costume if someone sees me putting it on. I bought some denim to sew myself a longer version, but haven't gotten to it yet.
That is enough. The logo shirts look cool, but since this is our home, it seems too formal: we aren't staff, we are hosts.

I wore an apron with the inn name over my clothes
Staff I put in tshirts with the inn name ... LONG torso covering ones. I had to go that route with chambermaids showing up in tops that covered not much at either end and they seriously thought they looked 'fine'. A couple of the girls just did not get it. Plus I told them that it saved their clothes from getting any cleaning solution on them. So wearing a 'uniform' shirt became required. It was a nice, clean look and I thought it gave the place a little class. I had them laundered myself and they changed into and out of them on site. MUCH easier than having them show up and say they forgot their work shirt, etc. Plus the laundry did an impeccable job on them.

The aprons were originally a Christmas gift from our daughter to the two of us. We liked it so much (and so did the guests) that we got them for the entire team. We now have an "apron-ing ceremony" after a new team member has been on board for 90 days they get one with their name. Great team building fun.
