Back in the day when I worked in design this was drummed into our tiny little heads "remember your target audience"Originally Posted by Misandal
not only was I SHOCKED but I couldn't even tell what they were advertising or who they were advertising it to.Whoever their marketing people are really missed it on that one.
What were they thinking?
They missed one audience (men who like bQQbs) and offended the other (us)and did not even identify the product.
Somewhere in an advertising firm I imagine that heads are rolling as we speak

I wonder if this is from CP+B (Crispin Porter + Bogusky). They've done a good bit of work for Peal Izumi in the past, including the We Are Not Joggers campaign, which got a lot of praise in the agency world. On the other hand, they also did some awful work for Nike that got them pretty widely mocked (and then fired by Nike).
This one is a definite miss, though. Feh.
