Ladies Are Loving Riley Green’s New Underwear Commercial (Featuring His Dog, Carl)
Merry Christmas to us, ladies.
Today, Gildan shared a new holiday ad with everyone's favorite underwear model country singer Riley Green.
Last year, he signed on as a spokesperson for Gildan brand, which is a clothing line that makes all sorts of staples like t-shirts, socks and of course, underwear. He previously admitted that the experience was a little uncomfortable, but that he wasn’t just modeling underwear during the photo shoot, and is also promoting some of their other basics like plain t-shirts and such:
“I wasn’t really in my underwear the whole day, they got t-shirts and socks to make other stuff.”
While it might’ve been outside of Riley’s comfort zone, I think I can confidently say on behalf of all of us ladies that the whole Gildan marketing team deserves a raise for the campaign and execution of every photo:

And this Christmas they delivered once again, sharing a new holiday ad that features Riley getting some new shirts, socks, and obviously, underwear, from his famous dog, Carl.
You see Riley open the box in just a white t-shirt and underwear, talking to Carl about what he got and showing off his new undergarments:
"What's this, Carl? Did you get me a something? Oh, nice, man. You can't get enough Gildan t-shirts. Back to basics, I like it. Oh yeah, this will be great for our morning runs right here. How'd you wrap this anyway?"
You can watch it here:

Of course, like pretty much anything Riley does, it sent ladies into a tizzy online, where they of course left plenty of comments for him about how much they loved the ad:
"Brief try on haul NOW."
"How do we meet."
"Couldn’t take my eyes off Carl, he really is just so perfect."
"You look so good."
"Carl is sooo thoughtful."
"Okay Riley."
"It’s not your looks but the love of Carl ✨✨✨."
"Sweet Christmas."
"Never been more jealous of a dog in my life."
"I need him for Christmas."
"So beautiful to watch."
"Riley got all the women in a chokehold right now."
"Looooord y’all know what I’m thinking!"
"Daddy."
The marketing team obviously knows what they're doing, and they're doing an amazing job, if I may say so myself.
It's really the perfect match, and while Riley's obviously benefitting from it in terms of making money, we all get to benefit in so many ways, as well. What more can you really ask for? In addition to this ad, they've done several other commercials too:
