Dunkin’ Mocks Branded Apparel Trend With ‘Cappu-chinos,’ ‘Americano-veralls’ and More

But I’ve got bad news for those of you looking to dual-wield some cups in your Cappu-chinos,  rock a stylish set of Americano-veralls or show off some foam art in a Latte-nk Top. These highly practical creations from the formerly donut-specific chain and agency BBDO New York are not actually available for purchase.

They’re simply part of a campaign announcing the brand’s espresso offerings, with a new espresso recipe, new cup designs and more.

Part of a campaign called Sipping Is Believing, the digital-only stunt will be joined by two very different TV spots, which show how the espresso drinks are being received in workplaces, such as a hospital and typical office:

The campaign will also include radio, digital display and social media. Through a Lyft partnership, the brand will offer free rides to Dunkin’ locations on Black Friday, Nov. 23, between 4 a.m. and 3 p.m. for the first 25,000 people who use the promo code “SipDunkin”.
