A new print ad campaign for Killer Jeans claims to be a real "Water Saver". The ads include a bold statement that Water Saver Jeans save 80% of water, and thanks to doing so "I can water a nursery for an entire week, shower longer with my man, make infinite ice cubes for my MojitoPartay and provide water for an entire village in East Africa". The other two ads from the campaign created by the ad agency Karan Rawat, make similar statements about water and what you can do with it thanks to their jeans. Thumbs up to them if these are facts and not just more greenwashing.

1791 Denim. 100% Made in the USA. Radio host Glenn Beck's new denim and clothing brand 1791 which originally launched as a charity clothing line 11 months ago, released a new commercial and web film (film below) promoting the clothing line.
Beck who was critical of the Levi's "Go Forth" campaign and complained that it "glorifies revolution"..."I put on a pair of old Levi’s and I said to my wife, ‘I love Levi’s! I’ve loved them since I was a kid. They’re my favorite jeans! I don’t know why I don’t wear them all the time!’ I am turning my red tabs in. I will not wear a pair of Levi’s. Won’t do it."
What's a man to do? You start your own denim shop! I have to be honest as a Canadian I have no positive or negative opinion of Glenn Beck, but I am really liking this 1791 Supply & Co. stuff.
See the Levi's Go Forth ad "America" that set Beck off Here.
Greenpeace turns the Levi's Go Forth ad campaign into their cause with "Go Forth and Detox."
They say you can tell next season's hottest trend by looking at the colour of the rivers in Mexico and China. That's because global fashion brands like Levi's are using hazardous chemicals and dyes to make our clothes.
But it doesn't have to be this way.
Thanks to global People Power, we were able to convince Zara, the world’s largest retailer, to commit to work with their suppliers and clean up their toxic water pollution.
Levi's is the world's biggest jeans producer, but they have yet to make a credible and ambitious commitment to Detox.
This is their time to give a damn. To be daring. To be a leader. To take a stand. To live the truth.
Join fashion-lovers, activists, models and designers in demanding Levi's Go Forth and Detox!
17 activists spread a thousand square meter yellow arrow banner pointing at the waste water treatment plant for Lavamex — one of Levi's suppliers in Mexico. The banner (bearing Levi's logo) reads: "LEVIS, Stop Polluting Mexico's rivers" and "Queremos Ríos Sin Tóxicos" (in Spanish). GreenPeace claims that the Lavamex facility is operating with little transparency and under weak Mexican laws, which allow them to avoid scrutiny of their manufacturing processes. Greenpeace goes to say they discovered nonylphenol (NP), a hormone disruptor during tests from a Lavamex discharge pipe.
DDB New York just launched a new global campaign, featuring supermodel Miranda Kerr, for Reebok's new Skyscape shoe...and looks looks stunning in it.
An everyday shoe for active and casual wear, Skyscape features 360 degrees of foam comfort in a fun, flirty silhouette that pairs perfectly with jeans, skirts or yoga pants. The challenge behind Skyscape was to create a stylish shoe that would keep women comfortable when they are on their feet all day running errands, meeting friends, commuting to work or going to the gym. Rather than just thinking about comfort underneath the foot, Reebok wanted the foot to be enveloped in comfort. In the research and development phase, Reebok looked to other industries for inspiration. For the pillow-like design of the sole of the shoe, the inspiration came from the home furnishings industry, while for the upper, the inspiration came from the lingerie industry – and specifically, molded foam bras.
The Skyscape upper is crafted using the same manufacturing techniques and processes as molded foam bras, but using materials that have been optimized for the stresses and strains placed on the feet all day. The seamless, 2-way stretch material creates a soft, comfortable envelope around the top and sides of the foot, while allowing for natural foot movement and breathability. The sole of the shoe resembles cloud-like pillows, and provide cushioning, comfort and flexibility for all-day comfort. The flirty lace-up silhouette comes in a broad range of colors to match any outfit or mood.
A fully integrated marketing campaign featuring style icon Miranda Kerr will launch the shoe, which hits retail outlets globally in March. With TV, print, retail, PR an digital components, the campaign works on all channels to demonstrate the way Skyscape feels and will have women everywhere wondering about the shoe that’s so comfortable, you’ll forget you have it on. Both the film and static elements of the campaign playfully center on this idea and were brought to life by legendary fashion photographer Gilles Bensimon, who captured the static imagery, and famed music video director Dave Myers who shot the TVC. DDB New York is the creative agency behind the campaign.
“I’m on the move all day so it’s important to have a pair of shoes that balance comfort, style and practicality,” said Miranda Kerr. “My Skyscape shoes are a wardrobe staple that come with me everywhere I go, they’re the perfect in-between shoe to wear to work, running errands or to the gym, and because they’re lightweight and compact they’re also great for travel. Skyscapes come in a range of fashionable colors so there’s a pair for every outfit!”
Martina Jahrbacher, Head of Reebok Walking, commented, “Reebok has a rich heritage in developing product especially for women and of looking outside of the footwear industry for the newest techniques, and I am proud to say that we have done it again with Skyscape. It took us more than two years to complete this shoe, as we were dedicated to creating a shoe that will perfectly support our active female consumer and, at the same time, was unlike any other shoe in the industry. At Reebok, we’re constantly looking for new ways to develop the best footwear and the innovative processes we’ve incorporated to develop Skyscape have created a shoe that you really have to try on to believe.”

Australian jean maker BillyCock apparently makes denim worth dying for, I'm sure you'll agree after watching the spot that the tagline should have been Worth Killing For. Jai Films, the production company behind the film, confirmed that TV networks had been approached, but they had declined to run the film because of its strong content. The film is intended for cinema and the internet.
The video was directed by Jared Beekhuyzen. Jai Films created the film from concept to completion; no ad agency was involved. Billycock plans to run an ad suitable for TV in the new year.
