Source out of home and Zenith teamed up with Life Style supports to create an eye-catching takeover of a UCD bus shelter complete with vinyl wrapped backings and parallel 6 Sheets. Atop the shelter sits an unmissable, giant Adidas-branded shoebox complete with the brand’s signature blue bag of equal size.
“We’re delighted to partner with Source out of home & Zenith to bring our For the Love of Trainers campaign to market,” says Lisa Tully, senior digital marketing and media manager at Life Style Sports, “The OOH campaign is brought to life with the highly impactful installation of the iconic Life Style Sports carrier bag alongside a global leader in trending trainers, adidas. It has truly delivered against our brief to a captive target audience in UCD which is a testament to the teams creativity.”
The campaign, planned by Zenith and Source out of home is the latest outstanding special to grace the outdoor landscape following other recent notables from Pepsi MAX and Disney+. The campaign is complemented by classic and DOOH elements across malls, small and large roadside formats.
