I can't see Aqua Velva without thinking of Twins

Attention — Duke Cannon is here to airlift your grooming regimen outta the wasteland of chemical-laden soaps and fancy-pants products. This is no-nonsense stuff designed with unfussy guys in mind — guys that work hard and get dirty but still value putting their best face forward. Duke’s products and designs depart from anything you’ll find in the aisle of a convenience store, instead opting for a military-inspired, military-tested range of hygiene essentials. The refreshing minty blast of the Cold Shower cubes feels like a polar plunge, perfect after a grueling workday. And the textured scrubber found in their tactical soap bundle is tough enough to whisk away the effects of even the dirtiest jobs. Best of all, Duke Cannon is committed to giving back, partnering with organizations like Honor Flight to directly support the brave and bright men and women of the armed forces. Well, don’t just sit there. Hop to it...

dookie cannon morelike.

I feel nothing but pity for that poor ad copywriter who was asked to "give us some ultra-masculine copy, straight up he-man, balls-to-the-wall stuff, you know, but genuine. oh, and work in the word 'tactical' if you can. the guys we're targeting love tactical crap".

Chemophobic but none of that fancy pants shit

missed an opportunity for "wetwork" imo

lmao at how un-"unfussy" that sounds

these are some v fussy products imo

was wondering what the target demo really is -- not actually e.g. oil rig workers, one suspects. assume they're just using gojo.

outdoor enthusiasts

wondering what the target demo really is

I'd say men who are insecure enough about their masculinity to overcompensate.

oh shit

BIG ASS BRICK OF SOAP
Modeled after the rough cut, "brick" style of soap used by GIs, and manufactured in the same plant as the supplier of military soap for over 20 years

TACTICAL SOAP ON A ROPE
This bundle is equipped with a textured scrubber specially-designed for a deep clean and a 550-mil-spec paracord to keep your soap from slipping away

lol tactical

"WE ARE TAKING HEAVY FIRE! I REPEAT. WE - ARE - TAKING - HEAVY - FIRE! CALL IN THE SOAP ON A ROPE!"

Being a ragtag group of highly experienced whiskey drinkers, we can safely say that Norlan’s built one the best looking, most sophisticated whiskey glasses on the planet. Not only is it eye-catching enough for Indiana Jones to sprint through a Mayan mineshaft for, but it also improves your whiskey’s taste and smell, finally allowing you to experience all those smooth caramelly notes the experts talk about. The team of industrial designers, fluid dynamics experts, and master distillers who built this glass spent a year and a half optimizing it for aeration and aroma. Three dozen prototypes and over $800k on Kickstarter later they finally held a glass that lived up their standards.

It works like this: protrusions in the bottom of the Norlan’s interior make whiskey swirl like a natural wave, giving it more contact with the air, and enriching its flavor. The glass’s shape, meanwhile, focuses the whiskey’s aroma into your nose while diffusing its stinging alcoholic bite away from your face. The end result lets you savor your whiskey’s complexities like a true connoisseur while sipping from a stylish glass sure to be the coolest looking thing on your bar cart. So sit back, relax, and savor. Now might be just the right time to start that whiskey collection you’ve been thinking about.

^^^ unfussy

weirded out by the scrubber with the soap embedded. great, how am I going to wring out all the grossness?

I feel like whiskey has been ruined

I'm manly as fuck that's why I only wash my ass with soap whose name sounds like a gay pornstar.

diffusing its stinging alcoholic bite away from your face -- wimp shit imo

imo just go full Chuck Tingle and shove the bar of soap up your ass

These fools sound like they've never bourbon bobbed for apples before

symmetry requires a 'marketing of femininity' thread. the only problem would be too effing much material.

I bet the "gross and gory Bible stuff" skips right past donkey cocks and horse semen

How to be like Jesus socially: First, find one prostitute...

At least one, si non, ça ne conte pas.

A collection of three teas that were formulated with guys in mind. Sugar Daddy is bursting with the energy of life-affirming ginseng green tea. Man Cave has the earthy whiff of leather and beer nuts. Lounge Chair Lapsang is a cup filled with the aroma of Dad's favorite pipe or a contraband stogy. The dad or man in your life is sure to savor all three.

I've started to see Mancan wine in stores now.

WHAT’S WITH THE NAME: MANCAN?
BY GRAHAM:

MANCAN WAS THE NAME THAT POPPED INTO MY HEAD THE NIGHT AT THE BAR WHEN I WISHED THAT THERE WAS AN OPTION TO ORDER A WINE-IN-A-CAN.

I HAD BEEN WORKING ON A CONSTRUCTION SITE ALL DAY AND WAS COVERED IN DRYWALL DUST AND MET UP WITH A BUDDY AT A BAR. HE ORDERED A TALLBOY AND I WAS CRAVING WINE BUT DIDN’T WANT TO DEAL WITH ASKING FOR A LIST OR A BOTTLE THAT HAD BEEN SITTING BEHIND THE BAR HALF OPENED FOR A WEEK AND GONE BAD. I ALSO WANTED SOMETHING CASUAL THAT DIDN’T BREAK THE BANK AND DIDN’T WANT TO DEAL WITH STEMWARE.

THE NAME IS MEANT TO BE TONGUE-IN-CHEEK – WITH A HINT OF IRONY. MANCAN ISN’T MEANT TO BE A POLITICAL STATEMENT – IT’S JUST HANDCRAFTED DELICIOUS WINE-IN-A-CAN. I THINK THAT MEN WILL LOVE THE EXPERIENCE OF DRINKING OUR WINE RIGHT OUT OF THE CAN, BUT ALSO THAT WOMEN WILL TRY IT AND LOVE IT TOO. THE ONLY THING WE’RE ANTI- IS THE TERRIBLE EXPERIENCE OF ORDERING AND DRINKING WINE IN LOTS OF BARS AND VENUES. OUR INTENTION IS NOT TO REPLACE THE RITUAL OF BOTTLED WINE AT A FAMILY GATHERING OR AT A WHITE-CLOTHED RESTAURANT…WE JUST WANT A MORE FUN ALTERNATIVE WHEN AT A CONCERT, TAILGATING, GRILLING, HANGING POOLSIDE, OR ON A PICNIC.

I ALSO THINK MANCAN IS CATCHY, SHORT, EASY TO REMEMBER, AND HAS A CERTAIN RING TO IT.

new sweat, sweat that can mask your sweat, or sweat that you can drink to help you sweat, less or more, whichever is more healthy in the moment. or just keep sweating. sweat is sweet in your mouth and you will beg for more. sweat is coming out of your underarms and your forehead is slick with new sweat, sweat that could appear at any moment on your body. we bottle up your sweat and others pay money to make it available. new sweat, sweat, it's sweat everywhere, it can't be washed off

that's my pitch for sweat

Wine in a can has been done before.

THE ONLY THING WE’RE ANTI- IS THE TERRIBLE EXPERIENCE OF ORDERING AND DRINKING WINE IN LOTS OF BARS AND VENUES.

xp
It's the butch name that's its selling point, I presume.

OR AT A WHITE-CLOTHED RESTAURANT

And I'm assuming they meant "white tableclothed restaurant" here.

I DIDN'T WANT MY BUDDY TO THINK I WAS ONE OF THEM NANCY BOYS WHO CAN'T KNOCK BACK A SIXER

I always end up bleeding profusely when I crush the empty wine glass against my head.

did ddb write that press release

Actual lols @ werk ^^

RIP big man

Have we covered Duke Cannon soap yet?

https://dukecannon.com/

uhh ok I'd seen ads before but not this beer soap

what in the heck

they definitely are up on their masculinity branding, though, all of the military-esque references and the picture of a guy holding an axe are very on brand
