The thinking behind this question would suggest that they are not the same thing, they are not the same socks.

How can company socks be the same as company logo socks.

If we break this theory down a little more we could pose the question what are company socks? are company socks, socks that are made up in the same colours as the company with no wording? Or are company socks just given out on an ad hoc or as required basis to staff members in a company or not in a company for no real and apparent reason? Just because it is felt by management that all staff members should be given company socks by the company for the company?

So with this in mind, it would make sense to think of a company that has very specific colours in their logo, a good example of this would be the cell phone companies.

So if a staff member is working for example in a shop owned by one of the cell phone companies and for example, the corporate colour is yellow, then it makes a huge amount of sense to say that the company socks worn by the staff member would be yellow and that it would not be necessary for these company socks to have any wording or logo.

In other words they are company socks without logo’s, so not company logo socks but they do however achieve the same result at the end of the day.

So taking this into account that company socks and company logo socks could be the same thing, it is true to say that they could also not be the same.

In the rare event that company socks do not need to be branded or do not need to be company logo socks then it is fair to say that company socks and company logo socks would be the same thing.

However, when the need arises for company socks to be logo’d to ensure that the socks are recognised as being company socks for a specific company then it also stands to reason that company socks and company logo’d socks are absolutely the same thing.

The irony then lies in how recognisable something is by way of colour.

Equally, when it comes to corporate ties or custom ties, one can well draw the same conclusion.

If custom ties are worn for example in a bank environment and have nothing other than the bank colours on the custom ties and if for example the banks colours are red, then it would probably be quite easy to spot a staff member simply by recognising the fact that they are wearing custom ties relevant to the colours of the bank in which they are employed.

Again then, on this basis, one can summize that although custom ties or corporate ties are worn as some form of identification, they do not always need to be branded ties, they can be recognisable by being custom ties made as corporate ties simply by colour recognition.
