## Transcript

Here at [ UNKNOWN ] . com we're all about innovation. Innovating comfort, innovating fashion, revamping the entire retail experience, because at [ UNKNOWN ] . com we take underwear very seriously. Over the past three years. We've been raising the bar, and we've blown away the underwear industry. But the undies train don't stop here. We've put together our best minds to keep moving forward with our undergarment advancements, as we continue to pioneer this one stale industry. We knew there was more we could get out of each pair sold, and the answer was right under our noses. Somebody had used this model with such great success, shoes.

DVDs, bikes, underwear seemed like a natural next step. Meundies. com is proud to introduce the ReUndies program. How it works is quite simple. Order a pair of the world's most comfortable underwear and they'll arrive faster than you can say sustainability. Wear them. Live in them. Be yourself in them. Then, when you're ready for a new pair, stick them back in the package, slap that prepaid shipping label on it, and send them on back. You don't even have to wash them. That's right, Billy. In fact, your package is arriving right now. Our laundering professionals use advanced sustainable energy practices, conserving natural resources, creating jobs, and getting your pair shipped back to you in just a couple of days.

And with underwear that get more and more comfortable with each wash. [ MUSIC ] The more used they are, the better you're gonna feel. We got a medium. Re- undies is easy, efficient, and on- time. But wait, there's more. There's a specific login and password for each pair of undies so you can track where it's been and see where it's going. From sunny Los Angeles to the Great Plains of the Midwest. [ MUSIC ] Taking a bite out of the Big Apple and across the pond to hang out with Big Ben. Stop for a yodel in the Swiss Alps, then off to Rome to do as the Romans do. We think every pair of underwear tells a story.

And with re- undies, you can become a part of that story. I actually tracked down my favorite pair's previous home. And now we're BFF's. Friends who share underwear together, stay together. [ Both ] Thanks Reundy's! I love the connection that I get when I wear a Reundy. Connecting to my fellow man, and to the world! It truly is the most beautiful experience you just don't get every day. I use Reundy's because it's easy and it helps the world. And I like, love the world. I'm actually wearing a pair of MeUndies right now. What I love most is thinking about who wore this pair before me. Maybe it was LeBron James.

Or Madonna. Or John Travolta. That's part of the fun. We couldn't be more excited to offer even more people the opportunity to wear the world's most comfortable underwear. ReUndies, from the Undies. com is the future. It's time we all start living in it. With ReUndies you recycle the comfort. [ MUSIC ]
