Gap Khaki Country

[@tbam73]

i used to work at the gap when these commercials came out(country, go go, etc) fall and holiday Gap commercials used to be so fun and creative. not so much now

[@randomuser1105]

I remember falling in love with all the Gap Khaki commercials when I was 12 or 13. Nostalgia.

[@lasktguy]

Great commercial. Fits right in with all the other dance commrecials Gap put out. Simple message..buy khakis and have fun dancing in them..whatever kind you do..swing, country, whatever.

[@clarice525]

There were several GAP music ads, but I loved this one best because everyone seemed to be having such a great time!!

[@aleph-tavunutterable1585]

The best and most memorable fashion apparel ad campaigns of all time

[@josept9729]

This campaign was genius. I don't know why they went downhill so quickly after this. Different board of directors?

[@dtshowell]

Love Dwight, but Khaki's and Cowboys = EPIC FAIL!!!!

[@luckyshiningstar101]

The writers' strike of the late 2000s, the invention of Smartphones and DVRs, and the rise of social media screwed advertising forever, especially because you can skip an ad now.

" ... you're not your fuckin' khakis. You're the all-singing all-dancing crap of the world. "

[@NolaChick82]

The ankle-length khaki skirt was SUCH a turn on. You had to beat the men away when you wore one.

[@grodney2000]

Who is the one with short hair at 0:09 and 0:10? I have loved this woman for 10 years.

[@fagora07]

Unabhängig von der Wergung: Gibt's eigentlich irgendwo eine Gruppe wo Line Dance genauso getanzt wird? Das sieht richtig klasse aus!

[@Existantia]

It's so hard to believe this was 10-11 yrs ago LOL It doesn't feel that way!! Feels like they came out no more than 5 yrs ago haha

[@josept9729]

Almost 25 years ago from my perspective!

[@rkmugen]

Mannequins... because the world is in a recession.

[@riorocketxo]

I'm thinking they should've used line dancing to push the tight jeans that Dwight usually wore, if anything! Love the song and dancing, but using it to push the wrong item I think..

[@nikkibv]

@BioDG Aren't the manikin commercials Old Navy?

[@bonitchka]

Dwight Yoakum recorded this version of "Crazy Little Thing Called Love".

[@DrJekyll38]

I remember that, and he laughed on The Tonight Show that a longer version of this ad made a perfect video for the song.

[@TTH247]

@@DrJekyll38 The official video for his rendition definitely looks like this ad.

[@Hifromyourmom]

crazy little thing called love by ELVIS... don't listen to that other dude hope you have found it by now

[@paul1060]

who is doing this version of the song?

[@efsq]

lol...khaki pants...only in america

[@RW1701]

I remember seeing this when I first started Line Dancing! Wow good times

[@justboycrazy45]

Yeah, I remember those. Gap did those ads. There were three of them: one had "America", one had "Play it cool", and one had the "Mambo" dance off. Hope this helps.

[@aa70queen01]

wow...i remember most of the 90's gap commercial but not this one. perhaps I was traumatized then and completely blocked this from my memory cuzz this is...disturbing.

[@ksb78]

anyone remembers the Gap ads that took scenes from Westside story? I remember there being two; one reworking 'America', and the other(a gap jeans ad) reworking 'Keep it cool'. A friend of mine says it wasn't Gap that did those ads, but I could have sworn it was. Am I wrong?

[@Gegray]

@laura83park Yeah I'm sick of those commercials too. It's time to start using REAL people not ugly manikins.

[@laura83park]

@Gegray I know! i miss these commercials, now we have to watch those terrible Old Navy commercials...ugh

[@RRobinsonVoiceOver]

I'm trying to find the Khakis Mambo ad - you're right, it was the Gap, because there is one that uses 'Cool' which is on KZbin. But the Mambo was my favorite and I haven't located it yet.

[@DrJekyll38]

Whatever happened to Dwight Hokum? I saw him trying his hand at acting a little, and then he disappeared.

[@freshPrincess626]

this was NOT 97/98.... damn, this was out when i was like 8 or 9, but i remember it really well.

[@elcapitan1539]

As much as I love the Gap ads, they still don't make me wanna buy khakis

[@llcoolj3778]

I can only think that those khaki skirts were like wearing a blanket.

[@ksb78]

Thank you. I knew I was right. although I got the title wrong(duh on my part). I finally found the 'Play it cool' ad here on youtube. I'm happy I found that one! :)

[@Ryan-lv6jt]

@mountaingirlcanada He took a personal liberty with a Fight Club quote. You can thank Chuck Palahniuk

[@Gegray]

This commercial is so damn creative. What happen to advertising these days.

[@bebe03]

lmao woww.. the Gap definately made sure to reach every demographic.

[@TheoriginalCoffeegod]

I wanted that skirt so badly because of this commercial....

[@purplemist123]

omg lol i love all these commercails!...i wouldnt remember them cus i was like 4 when they were out

[@MoltenCorgii]

I cant believe this video is 10 years old already.

[@Banksparty4]

@Gegray Oh I sooo agree, this was brilliant advertising

[@justboycrazy45]

They know how to get down country style!

[@Forlaniz3]

[@RichYan33]
