It’s called “cotton,” you’ve probably never heard of it.

    erm, what were they trying to sell again? Who are these marketing pros anyway? Soooo, who paid for the ad? What was the product? Cotton? Really? So, synthetic fibers are making it cotton irrelevant in the market. This is one of the things I find kind of funny, a manufacturing material, cotton, thinks a commercial will actually make a difference?

    Explain it to me. You are correct BFH, it makes no sense.

    @Debbie — No, this is a commercial for cotton, not for Levi’s.

    There are a few cotton ads done by celebrities. They’re just basically saying “Look at all the pretty people that wear cotton” and that’s about it.
    This ad was just satire of that.
