"ماركة محترمة"
That's basically what it means. You can put it between quotation marks if it sounds too colloquial.

والله ما فهمت شيئا من ردك، الرجاء سحب عدم الموافقة، ثم الشرح،, ولاتغامر لمجرد الاعتقاد أن كلامك صح، يرجى رفع عدم الموافقة في البدء ثم نتحدث في الموضوع

Speaking of Daddy Duke, he bought me a carton of Lucky Strike Filter Lights. They’re decent cigarettes, but they burn really fast and are lighter than the Pall Malls I’m used to. End result: I smoke twice as many.

English term (edited):
decent
لا بأس بها
The adjective "decent" in this context does not mean a postive endorsement of quality, like "good" or "fine," for example. Instead, it simply means "OK" or "acceptable." A thing is called decent if it is not positively bad.
This is different from the term "decent" when referring to a human being or in the context of a moral judgment. That would be a different kind of decency.
