Watch the spot
There's no doubt compression garments are hot these days (get it?), but with so many SKUs out there, I just don't see room for another one. This is an interesting way to isolate the variable, though, and also see how far this copper craze can go.
S7 Analysis: Just for fun, I counted the number of campaigns on the Jordan Whitney with the word "copper" in the name. I tallied six campaigns by five different marketers. Not exactly uncrowded. What's more interesting is competition among DRTV players (a growing trend) created crowding virtually overnight in a category that didn't exist before Tommie Copper.
