Remember me?

Hello, again! Last time we met, I was celebrating my big 25th birthday with my very own Jockey® birthday email (still geeking out about that). Since then, a lot of amazing things have happened for me. Seeing as I work in social media, you know where I’m sharing my good news first!

At the time of my birthday blog and email campaign, I was the social media intern. I know what you’re thinking, “you were an intern and you got to do a photo shoot?” It’s still hard to believe, but I really did! Despite my title, there wasn’t ever a point when I truly felt like I was an intern.  Well, maybe there was one time…

The work environment at Jockey® is very relaxed and casual, no suits and ties or any of that uncomfortable dress attire. This is no surprise since Jockey®’s mission is “To satisfy the human need for comfort.” But, as the new guy, what did I do on my first day? I showed up in a suit. That’s right.  If getting lost on the way to the cafeteria didn’t shout “new guy,” my suit sure did. As I settled into my desk, admiring all of the new goodies Jockey® hooked me up with as a welcoming gift, my neighbor interrupted me as he peeked around the corner and smirked “nice suit.”

As much as I enjoyed being an intern, it excites me to share with you that I am now a full-time member of the Jockey® social media team (best news ever)! Now, I can officially call myself the social media guy for Jockey®. So, to all of our great followers and readers, I am looking forward to bringing you a fun and unique look at Jockey®. We have exciting plans coming up, and I would love for all of you to be a part of it. To make sure you don’t miss out, keep up with us on Facebook, Twitter and YouTube.

Oh, and if you’re wondering about my photo — it’s a Jockey® thing!

See you on social,

Ryan

To Dad’s We Appreciate and Celebrate!

Dad’s… they sure are amazing aren’t they?  With Father’s Day right around the corner, the question we’re asking is — what do you get the man that does it all?  It is no easy task to shop for the “dad-of-all-trades.” So, this year, we’re helping you out with our Father’s Day Gift Guide, filled with styles dad is sure to love.

Whether it was the time he taught you how to ride your first bike, change the oil in your first car or reassure you that the scary noise you kept hearing underneath the bed was NOT a monster – Dad has always been there offering his support.  Show dad your appreciation for all that he does with the gift of comfort from his favorite Jockey® collection.  From everyday essentials like socks, boxers and t-shirts to our sport performance and Jockey® staycool collections (that’s right, even dads can be cool!), we’ve got something for every dad.

To make this day even more special — we’re taking $10 OFF your $50 purchase on men’s styles.  That means you can spoil dad just a little bit more!  Stop by Jockey.com® between 6/8-6/19 to get in on these savings.  Plus, be sure to enter coupon code JKYDAD at checkout.

To all the dads out there, we wish you a Happy Father’s Day!

As always, we’d love to hear some of your dad’s Jockey® favorites!  Oh, and don’t forget to share something that your dad taught you, too!

Gifting the same gifts: Great minds think alike

“Now that all of the children are grown, we still meet at my mom’s house to celebrate Christmas. A few years ago, we were doing the gift exchange and I was thrilled as I opened a gift from my mom and found that my favorite Jockey® underwear was her gift to me. I kept a completely straight face and urged her to open her present from me. When she did, she laughed so hard as I had gotten her the exact same thing she had bought for me – style and all!!! Good judgment seems to run in our family – like mother, like daughter!” -Laura, Milwaukee, WI

“My sister and I have similar tastes and both shop out Jockey® outlets. One year, we each bought the same style, same color holiday flannel pajamas for each other without knowing it until we exchanged gifts.” -Michelle from Kutztown, PA

If you, your family and your friends wear Jockey® styles – obviously you all have great taste! =) Once you get hooked on the fit and feel, you want everyone you love to experience it too! Our cozy microfleece and festive pajamas make fabulous gifts this season. Watch out! The same great styles may end up under your tree.

So tell us! What Jockey gifts are you giving this year? And, what would you like to receive?
