Male Underwear: Marketing the male package 11 – Advertising and reality

Asdumark didn’t respond to emails about their underwear advertising claims in GQ Magazine: ‘award winning’ designer underwear and promoting male fertility or helping spermatogenesis.

Male Underwear: Marketing the male package 10 – Big claims, small response, and the consequence of ignoring a potential customer

Back in November I found an underwear advert from AsdruMark that I thought was making big claims without evidence.

Widespread gusset anxiety revealed

Underwear gets mainstream exposure as Jeremy Paxman’s private email to Marks & Spencer is slipped to the press.

Paxman complained to Sir Stuart Rose, M&S Chairman, that M&S men’s underwear doesn’t provide enough support.
