Anton Sport promotes its comfortable ski gear with this gross commercial featuring a pair of talking heel blisters.
This commercial is actually hard to watch, but obviously one viewers won't forget easily. While the camera travels over a snowy hill, a pair of bare heels come in and out of the frame as they discuss their day ahead. The heels talk through massive open blisters as the hanging skin moves to mimic a talking mouth. This conversation goes on far too long for the timid viewer, but does effectively communicate the agony of having such wretched heel blisters while skiing (or doing anything for that matter).
Anton Sport is a Norwegian sporting goods company who specializes in ski equipment including ski boots, skis, poles, helmets and body suits.
