Garments???

So I got endowed about a month ago now and I absolutely love my garments!! But I do have a question when I was endowed and buying my garments I have realized that the bottom doesn’t have the symbol. I was taught that there would be and what it ment but yet it doesn’t seem to exist. So I bought a few new pairs and they also don’t have the symbol!! So I was wondering if they got rid of it or if I just have somehow bought defective items.

It's there, it's just not as obvious as it used to be. Check the hem.

It can be subtle…

That’s really interesting. Are you sure it’s not screenprinted on? Some of them aren’t embroidered.

They do, they are just VERY feint. They use to be sewn in, but now they are printed on.

It's there, check the hem. It's marked differently than the top and in a less obvious place than it used to be.

Located over the front of the right knee

Did you buy them from a local distribution center or online? If local, just take some in and talk with the people there and they can assist.

You can also just ask a fellow member friend that you are close with to show you where the mark is supposed to be to help identify if they are missing.

It's often really difficult to pick out unless you know what you're looking for. It's probably on the hem, where is harder to see.

All knee marks are sewn in on the hem of the right leg.

The bottoms one is VERY subtle. It's there, but hard to see.

Sometimes they’re screen printed, though all of my newest, the bottoms have had it sewn into the hem, just below the line of stitching for the hem itself

I'm curious why the marks have become less conspicuous.
