Diesel is well-known for their head-scratching ads, and their new Fall/Winter campaign continues that legacy.
We've had a sneak peek at the concept with a curious Twink vs. Bear billboard earlier, and now we can confirm that the whole campaign is just as crazy.
Each of the offbeat Diesel ads comes with illustrations and cryptic copies that can be interpreted as deep social commentary or just plain nonsense.
