Different brand of belt at school.

Black Belt
Awhile back I was reading a lot of posts involving the brands of Karate belts. I read a post someplace that said the poster believed it was inappropriate to show up for class with a different brand of belt (I believe the discussion involved color belts) than the brand given by the school. I seem to recall the post was mentioned in a thread about students having for a particular brand of equipment, At the school I attend I noticed the the majority of black belts have Shureido brand Gi's, but there are other brands worn.

I tried to find the post but was unsuccessful.

Has anyone heard of this before?
 
Anything is possible, but personally, I couldn't care less. I give students a belt. If they want to spend their money on another, that's on them. I've got better things to do in class than inspect the labels on their clothing.
 
I don’t think I’d care, but can’t say for sure, having never experienced it. I can’t imagine a student going out and getting a belt on his own. Whatever for?

Some belts are nicer.

I got an Adidas belt for a while because I thought having a branded belt was funny.
