Merchandise In Action PP Pants Don’t Have To Be pants !

Well it certainly may not be the weather to be caught out in your undies, but as it’s the start of a brand new year we thought it was important to highlight some exceptional, colourful and eye catching merchandise in action from 2018. In this case it was a unique partnership #ComeOutAndPlay campaign between Paddy Power and Brighton & Hove Pride Festival which is wildly acclaimed as the UK’s biggest and best pride event!

We think this is a perfect example of how you can adapt your brand to create a unique connection with a specific event, occasion or partnership. We hope this world class merchandise in action will hopefully give you a little inspiration for your next marketing campaign or promotion in the year to come so it can really maximise the branding opportunity while targeting a specific event & audience.

Never underestimate the power of the photograph to capture the moment of any campaign & deliver real impact, think PR exposure, think the endless social media sharing or competitions on Instagram, Twitter, Facebook & Snapchat. Please remember we are here to help with expert branded clothing, merchandise and print advice to really make your campaign succeed. Why not have a look at all the products available or download one of our briefing forms that will help you consider your audience & planning to really achieve those goals in 2019.

Wild Thang proud to donate warm clothing to the homeless as temperatures fall.
Wild Thang proud to donate warm clothing to the homeless as temperatures fall.

Andrew Dwerryhouse, MD at Wild Thang commented: “Wild Thang are proud to have made this donation and are sure every little counts, It’s this time of year that our thoughts turn to those most in need when the weather takes a turn for the worse for vulnerable homeless people, especially when having to deal with freezing temperatures. That’s exactly why we donated a sizable amount of clothing including jackets, hoodies and hats to the Cotton Street Homeless Project and Whitechapel Homeless Centre which will hopefully keep a number of people safe and warm this winter. As part of the companies charitable fundraising the staff Christmas Jumper day held prior to the festive break raised over £200 which will be split between these two great organisations. We encourage others to get involved as the more people/companies/organisations involved in trying to make an impact the better the outcome will be, which is ultimately all focused on trying to eradicate homelessness in the Liverpool City Region for good.”

World’s largest underpants!

At Wild Thang we love all things big, large, gigantic, massive and huge related to products we sell. Check out the world's largest biggest #underpants #undies proving that pants simply don’t have to be pants & size does sometimes matter :-) The largest underpants measured 25.36 m (83 ft 2 in) across the waist and 18.09 m (59 ft 4 in) from waistband to crotch & was achieved by Cottonil (Egypt) in Cairo, Egypt on 7 March 2018. The event was for the launch of a campaign to raise awareness for prostate cancer by offering free health checks. What a fantastic attention grabbing stunt gaining entry into the famous Guinness Book of Records but also creating that all important awareness of a very important health campaign. We have no doubt this would have created endless PR publicity and social media interaction.

Wild Thang Branding Geek return of the Mac !
Wild Thang Branding Geek return of the Mac !

We love bringing you random #BrandingGeek facts & information about products we sell. Well it’s raining outside and the temperature is starting to fall, so I thought we would give a nod to the good ole raincoat jacket. Did you know in 1823, Scotsman Charles MacIntosh was granted a patent on the first 'waterproof' fabric. It was made by squeezing liquid rubber in between two pieces of fabric, then pressing them together. Prior to this people could only keep themselves dry by wearing oiled fabrics like cotton. They were heavy and water repellent but smelt pretty bad.

 This first range had it's unique problems though - when the weather heated up, the rubber would become sticky, and when it got cold it became too stiff. The 1839 invention of Vulcanization by Charles Goodyear (of the tyres fame) changed the game. Vulcanized rubber tested temperature changes, and made

'Mackintosh' Coats a perfect rainwear solution.Initially, it had success for horse riders, then became adopted for use in the British Army & then pretty much the rest of the globe.  Thanks to Mr Charles MacIntosh for your creativity. All regions with inclement weather & of course the many seafarers are forever in your debt. #WHOINVENTEDTHEWATERPROOFCOAT Remember we are here to help with expert branded clothing advice to suit any weather conditions this planet has to throw at you so why not take a look at just a few of the jackets we have available
