Reebok ads too edgy?

KrishFeb 27 2006

Are Reebok ad images these days really edgy? Mark Jewel writes one ad depicts the devil while another has fingerprints on a look alike police booking form. Then you have a philosophical advice from 50 Cent, "take advantage of today because tomorrow is not promised."

Reebok, probably the most visible and remarkable sports brand of all time in this no cutting edge and constant product innovation age has been under some long term rehabilitation of sort since 1996. No doubts it's making innovative products which are making hell lot of difference to consumers and athletes worldwide.

But as a viewer we get to some ads which revolve around controversies for all the wrong reasons. For example, another 50 cent ad where the rapper asks, 'Who do you plan to massacre next?' which was later withdrawn.
