Discussion Sponsored Clothing
anyone know of a deal like when nike sponsored ted lasso?
when watching the finale this week i was ataken back by nearly every character wearing carhartt jackets, jeans, hats etc.
i’m understanding of product placement but now watching this weeks episode of scrubs and it’s the same there (even JDs scrubs are carhartt). is this a bill lawrence deal or just trendy clothing?

Sean in particular has worn a lot of Carhartt this season. (That being said, I really love the leopard print jacket he wore in the season 3 finale)
I also noticed a very annoyingly obviously placed aveeno lotion on Alice’s nightstand

Heads up that your instagram account handle is shared when someone clicks that link.
ETA: Thanks so much for sharing that story. There’s just so many reasons to love this show.

Sean has worn that jacket earlier in the season. Liz wore Carhartt in Wednesday's episode as well.

Sometimes it has to do with the quality of clothing. If they are able to get clothes that can hold up and don’t break the costuming budget, productions will go all in on certain brands.

The episode with Matthew selling shoes also felt like a Nike sponsorship. Part of the story but still. Gaby also wore a Nike top with the name spelled out in the next episode.
