Right Guard is a brand of deodorant for men. It is also a brand of shower gel. It is manufactured by the Dial Corporation unit of Henkel of North America, which acquired the brand in 2006 as a condition for Procter & Gamble's Gillette acquisition because P&G has other deodorant brands such as Old Spice.[1]
Right Guard is the second largest brand in the male deodorant category. The Gillette Company introduced Right Guard as the first aerosol antiperspirant in the early 1960s.[2] Since then, Right Guard has launched many new items and can be found in numerous antiperspirant deodorant forms.

Right Guard is positioned for the sports enthusiast, as seen throughout its advertising during the late 1980s through late 1990s. Professional athletes such as Marvin Hagler, Hulk Hogan, Charles Barkley, Brett Favre, Scottie Pippen, Wayne Gretzky, and Vladislav Tretiak were featured in Right Guard TV commercials during this time. In 2008, Right Guard became the Official Deodorant of the NBA continuing its path of sports and athlete advertising. That same year, Right Guard also became a partner with Chris Paul, a point guard for the New Orleans Hornets.
Right Guard comes in multiple forms: invisible solid, deodorant stick, clear gel, aerosol, and clear stick. Right Guard has three sub-brands, Total Defense 5, Sport and Clinical.
