So we’re small.  But we think preposterously big.  And after a few pints at the Blackhorse Pub, bigger still.  So at 2:00 AM Pacific, we proudly announce our Global Advertising Campaign…the Cordarounds Zeppelin!

Yes, now that we’ve sold pants to customers as far away as Dar es Salaam, we've built up a modest advertising budget.  Of course we could go the standard route, placing ads in such venerable publications as Filbert’s Haberdashers Quarterly, Pant and Leg, and The Corduroy Intelligencer.

This year, we've eliminated the cargo pocket from our Shortarounds. Why? Because unless you’re toting grenades or trout, these pockets are a tad superfluous. The same can be said of many features on the Cordarounds Zeppelin, our 1,000-foot-long airship, which, when completed, will serve as Cordarounds corporate headquarters.



Yes, we're cutting the fat to build a sleeker, higher-performance dirigible, eliminating the bells and whistles to get our airship aloft sooner (goodbye, cognac-filled Jacuzzi!). In fact, the cuts have been so radical that our famous pant-blimp (see the Spring 2006 issue of Blimpsmen’s Quarterly) now resembles shorts! While the Cordarounds corporate dreadnought will still comfortably house a crew of 500, plus livestock, it will do so at nearly half the size. How so? Some of its legendary ammenities will have to go.

While each cut is painful, rest assured our zeppelin will still offer a first-rate work environment for hundreds of Cordarounds employees, whom we'll be hiring en masse no later than June 2045!
