Controversies and legal
Controversy
In 2024, Garage added content for the company's new denim promotion. The ad campaign featured ladies dancing to a bass-heavy song while modeling the jeans and taking off their tops and bottoms.
Online shoppers quickly criticized the advertisement, claiming it was overly sexualized, did not include people of various sizes, and would even be harmful to younger viewers. There are more than a dozen posts on the brand's Instagram page, and nearly all of them are besieged with negative comments urging the campaign to halt. Groupe Dynamite's Garage cleaned up its social media profiles on July 15 and added content for the company's new denim promotion.
