(1) It is prohibited because "it might fall and he will carry it" in Reshus ha'Rabim.
(2) It is prohibited because "it looks as if he is going to the marketplace" (see Insights).
(3) According to Tosfos, this is talking about a case when it is sewn to a garment. The Rabanan prohibited wearing a badge sewn to a garment lest one go out with a badge that is not sewn on. According to the Ritva, a badge is prohibited only when it is *not* sewn to a garment (see Insights).
(4) But if the slave made it himself, he may not go out with it, because he might take it off so that people will not know that he is a slave. Also, if the badge is made of metal, he may not go out with it even if his master made it, because it might fall off and he will pick it up and carry it in Reshus ha'Rabim. If the badge is tied to his garment, he may not go out with it even if it is made of clay, for fear that it might fall off and shatter and the slave will fold up his coat on to his shoulder (thus carrying in Reshus ha'Rabim) to cover the place where the badge was sewn, so that his master will not think that he purposely removed it.
(5) This seems to be the intention of Tosfos (DH Lo Tetzei). See Maharsha and Maharam, and see Insights.
