With what is my 11yo confusing Pink Floyd?

“Pink Floyd,” he said, “isn’t that a clothing brand? With like sweatshirts, and they have pink, like, here, and here?” Is he making up something out of whole cloth, so to speak, or is there something he’s confusing it with?

Response by poster: “Are you thinking of Pink?” My husband asked. “Just Pink?”

Best answer: Victoria's Secret has a line called PINK....it's often written across the butt area of sweatpants.

I’m guessing he’s seen an ad for Thomas Pink. They have Pink in pink on the cuffs fwiw.

Response by poster: Yeah, I feel kind of dumb...I’d been looking at the Hundreds x Garfield co-branding mindbender yesterday so I was prepared for something...more. But of course.

Middle school girls wear a lot of Pink brand sportswear so it’s not surprising he’s tangentially aware of the brand.

Could it be Henri Lloyd? Edit: just realised the question had already been answered.
