Every brand needs a clear identity and purpose. Insert the manifesto. Although there's a danger in reliance on this mechanism to communicate your core beliefs, it is an effective filter for making sure you stay on track.

INNOVATION LEADS THE CHARGE

The challenge with this approach is it doesn't always resonate with the young consumer unless you're targeting fans of Bill Nye, the Science Guy. How do you make technological innovation sexy? You craft highly visual stories driven through the lens of elite athletes performing at their full potential wearing the best athletic product on earth. Tell me a story and show me the results.

Studies show active kids do better in school, have reduced levels of stress and anxiety, and enjoy greater creativity and leadership skills, yet today’s kids are the least active generation in history. An Active School model addresses the benefits of moving by integrating physical activity before, during and after the school day.

PERFORMANCE ENGINEERING

Explosive performance on the pitch, lower impact on the planet. The Nike GS delivered a deadly combination of lightweight innovation and recycled materials resulting in the fastest, lightest and greenest boot Nike has ever made.

Conceived and engineered in Italy, the Nike GS features recycled and renewable materials throughout the upper and plate design. A bio-based traction plate made primarily from castor beans ensures strength and flexibility on pitch. The cleat laces, lining and tongue are made from a minimum of 70 percent recycled materials. 

Destroy the opposition, not the planet.
