Robert Irwin has been wrangled as the newest ambassador for Aussie bedding brand The Lad Collective.
Known for his lifelong advocacy for wildlife as a passionate conservationist, Irwin has turned his attention to a lesser known part of the natural world: the mysterious bedding habits of the bloke in his natural habitat.
After discovering that many single men admit to only changing their bed sheets four times a year, Irwin is delivering a simple message: the boys deserve better.
“I’m thrilled to come on board with our mates at The LAD Collective. It’s exciting to celebrate these local legends who are leading their field from my hometown of the Sunshine Coast,” said Irwin.
“Along with my work as a wildlife conservationist, I am also passionate about health and wellness, and sleep truly is the cornerstone to wellbeing. The LAD Collective commits to quality and comfort. They are the perfect example of local Aussie innovation taking the world by storm. They embody a sense of fun and passion for their craft, which is what I am all about. Plus their love of the outdoors and support for conservation through our charity gala for Wildlife Warriors is a testament to their awesome Aussie spirit!”
Founded by brothers Bill and Ed Ovenden, The Lad Collective was created to make bedtime easier. The brand’s signature sheet sets feature clever corner straps to keep fitted sheets in place, labelled sides so the fitted sheet is never put on the wrong way and a breathable bamboo-cotton blend designed for maximum comfort.
The founders said Irwin was the obvious choice to represent the brand.
“Robert is so authentic and relatable. We love how genuinely passionate he is and know he is the perfect fit to help us encourage men to upgrade their sleep and bedding habits and do better in the bedroom…when it comes to their sheets,” said co-founder Ed Ovenden.
The Lad Collective’s new campaign sees Irwin bring his humour and charm to the bedroom, highlighting common sleep and bedding challenges faced by Australian men and showing how The Lad Collective is making bedtime easier.
