flag UK bans Nike, Superdry, and Lacoste ads for false green claims.

flag Ads for Nike, Superdry, and Lacoste were banned in the UK for making misleading sustainability claims, the Advertising Standards Authority (ASA) ruled. flag The regulator found the brands used terms like “sustainable” and “eco-friendly” without sufficient evidence, particularly failing to prove products had no environmental impact across their entire life cycle. flag Nike’s “Sustainable Materials” claim, Superdry’s “Sustainable Style,” and Lacoste’s “For the Kids” ad were deemed unsubstantiated despite partial sustainability efforts. flag The ASA emphasized that environmental claims must be clear, accurate, and backed by verifiable data, especially as consumers seek greener options. flag All three companies removed the ads and committed to more responsible future messaging.
