Commercials
One of the most well known aspects of the Men's Wearhouse is their television commercials. The commercials feature George Zimmer touting the features and benefits of a suit from the chain, usually saying that they are not cheap but represent a true value in men's apparel. While the first commercials appeared in 1975 for the chain, Zimmer didn't begin personally appearing in them until 1986. It was at this time that his famous slogan was born, "I guarantee it!" which refers to his guarantee that the customers will be happy with their suits. -
