Synopsis:
Nike transports runners into a video game, blurring the line between gaming and in-store product trial
Nike reinvented cushioning with NIKE REACT technology for the new Nike Epic React running shoes. It’s a shoe that combines bounciness and softness, while keeping it extremely light and durable. But how do you communicate all of these characteristics to the consumer during a 3 minute in-store trial?
Welcome to Reactland. To communicate the feeling of NIKE REACT technology, Nike China and its long term creative partner Wieden+Kennedy Shanghai launches an immersive video game experience in store where people can trial the shoes, transport themselves into the game as the main character and enter a fantastic land populated by the soft springy characteristics of NIKE REACT. This fantastic world is populated with clouds, springs, pillows and other fun elements to metaphorically demonstrate the benefit of NIKE REACT technology.
Reactland boldly challenges traditional in-store shoe trialing by combining entertainment, sharability and product education into a 3 minute experience.
