The credits are better than the ad.

"Afflatus Dang" and "Monkey Q" sound like a crime-fighting duo from the future.

I know i am going to get ripped to shreds for saying it. But i kinda like it. Its so random. I think that some of the copy may be missing its for Waterproof shoes.

this ad makes no sense whatsoever.
which is why I've been staring at it for minutes now.
hey, perhaps that means it works?

I am getting old.

hahahahahaha.

talay's picture 266 pencils

same for me... I've been staring at it for several minutes... trying to understand the process how it came to this... a boot pretending as a boat... and a captain staring through binoculars standing inside the waterproof boot (boat)...

caramba carambita !!!!

WHAT IS THIS!?!?! I don't know if anyone has come to the realization that in this ad.......there is.....a man in a boot. A man in a boot? whaaaaa?

sold's picture 2341 pencils

i think they change the lines...
this line here belong to the other ad, the line on the other belongs to this one here...

i like it. not too much, but somehow...

yea i think the part that casues all the confusion is the wind falling bit. they should have just put "waterproof" and then the logo. perfectly simple.. look how waterproof this boot is.

Sue Anna Joe's picture 28 pencils

Think they should have just had the captain actually wearing the boots, on the boat, and water splashing into the boat and all over the shoes.

The creativity doesn't really work here. But it's a cute effort. Hehe.
