PVH Corp. unveiled a new campaign for its Van Heusen brand, which will include a partnership with UFC. The deal makes Van Heusen as UFC’s first-ever “Official Men’s Dress Furnishings Provider,” with UFC bantamweight champion TJ Dillashaw and UFC welterweight contender Stephen Thompson starring in a new commercial highlighting the Van Heusen Flex collection of men’s shirts and pants, which incorporates stretch features to give men a “corporate business-like look without sacrificing the range of motion or comfort found in casual clothing.” The commercial and campaign creative will be placed across national and local cable television, including NFL Network, Comedy Central, FOX Sports 1 and TruTV; programmatic and Pay-Per-View shows; video on-demand on Hulu, DirecTV Now, Sling TV and Roku; digital advertising spanning news and sports websites like Bleacher/Report and ESPN; and display ads on select retailer sites. Elk Grove Village signed a deal to become the title sponsor of the Makers Wanted Bahamas Bowl, which will be played Dec. 21 in Nassau. This marks the first time a non-tourist municipality has ever sponsored a bowl game. “Elk Grove Village is home to the largest industrial park in the United States, spurred by our village’s commitment to being beyond business-friendly,” said Elk Grove Village Mayor Craig Johnson. “Our relationship with the Makers Wanted Bahamas Bowl and ESPN Events is a perfect opportunity to use college football to share our message with the entire country. We were impressed by how the bowl game has been developed in the Bahamas over the past four years, and we share in the excitement that this event brings to their community.” LAST CHANCE!!
