UNBOX THE STRANGE

To promote the new adidas zx 2K boost model we decided to create an oddly satisfying unboxing experience.

IDEA

Unboxing videos are one of the greatest internet phenomenon. Usually brands concentrate on who is unboxing and what is inside. Because adidas zx 2k boost concentrates on the experience, we decided to focus on the experience of unboxing to be as unexpected as the shoes themselves.  

We created a shoe box which you could experience with different senses. The see through box was filled with different kinds of slime which was custom made for the purpose of this campaign. The slime was created in the colors of the new ZX model, and has variety of textures - the crunchy shell on the top and softer, colorful slime inside. Taking the shoe off the box was a very intriguing experience, extremally well received by the influencers who got it.
