The Burton Corp wants to sell Analog product so badly they’re willing to exploit a homeless man’s genitalia.
In the October 2008 issue of Blisss magazine, Analog’s ad features a homeless man laying on the front steps of what looks like a church with his pants undone and his penis out. To Analog this is apparently hilarious. “Please Use Buttons,” they joke.
They really should be nicer to him. He’s probably one of the few people in the world who would wear Analog without getting paid.
Some marketing directors are just dumb shits. I do wonder if the flowed that guy a pair of gravis shoes. On the other hand they could have given him a $20 bill and sent him to TJ Maxx, Marshalls or Ross dress for less…they are stocked full of discount gravis and analog these days
…and i thought the coked out party ads they’ve been running were bad. this is horrific on so many levels. yuck.
Burton is making some humdinger marketing calls as of late, huh?
hardy har har. shock tactics dont make your shit cool
