About the Work
The Nike FlyEase is one of the best inventions of 2021, according to Times Magazine. It’s life-changing innovation for athletes of all abilities. But when it was first launched, it got off on the wrong foot. It ended up in the hands of Hypebeasts and bots. For its relaunch, Nike asked us to get it on the feet of the people who needed it most.
We wanted to go beyond just saying who the FlyEase innovation is for – and actually show it. We took the iconic ‘Behind the Design’ content series, a Sneakerhead favourite, and reframed it to ‘Why The Design’ to not only show why its so innovative but also why it’s designed for adaptive athletes. Influencing Hypebeasts into NOT buying the shoe to get it onto the feet of the people who need it the most.
For this adaptive makeover, we spoke to record-smashing adaptive athletes and highlighted them on Nike’s channels. Then we partnered with adaptive influencers already documenting their lives with disabilities, showing their communities how the innovation is a game-changer for them. The result was content from the people who benefited from the FlyEase range the most, told in their own way, to the people who needed it the most.
