Stride Eases Chance Encounter With Cute Redhead

There’s always a moment in your life when you experience obsessive infatuation for another. It could be your first love. It could be your last love. It could be that new classmate who moved to town in 4th grade who you pined for year after year until you worked up enough courage to invite her to prom. Or it could just be that cute redhead who walks back into your life while you’re sitting in a coffee shop.

Wieden + Kennedy London captures that very moment in a new Stride Chewing Gum commercial that’s filled with the usual things that run through a guy’s mind when he’s figuring out exactly how to approach the love of his life without making a fool of himself.

Thankfully in this ad the guy does the right thing. Ever so simple. But right.
