SITUATION: Parents/caregivers didn’t know what the benefit of Air was for their kids or that it had value beyond aesthetics. Parents/caregivers bought Air products out of habit but lost touch with the real benefits of Air innovation. Kids, however, loved air already because it kept them comfortable for all-day play; and the amount of activity kids do in a day demanded versatile comfort out of their footwear.

TASK: Develop a product innovation campaign to launch Nike EasyOn in SP24 and re-ignite the excitement of Air for parents/caregivers by positioning it as the pinnacle of playtime comfort (emphasizing that it’s a slip-on shoe). Establish Nike as the industry leader for kids footwear with real performance benefits that kids need to power a full day of play.

ACTION: Produced Motion and Still assets to exemplify the benefits of Air Max 270 Go. We focused on 3 main product benefits - Air, Comfort and Ease, which are showcased in the above 3 AV’s. Positioned the Air Max 270 Go as a shoe where, as soon as kids step in, a full day of fun begins.

RESULT: The product launch was highly successful with strong sell-through rates across NA, EMEA, APLA and GC.
