Campaigns we have run in Footwear
Work we planned, booked and photographed for advertisers in this sector, run by the same team and the same process you would work with.
Full local train wraps on the Mumbai commute
Socks are bought by the people standing on a Mumbai platform in office clothes, which makes the local train less a medium than a description of the audience. Full exterior wraps were taken on Western Railway rakes carrying the office socks proposition with Kartik Aaryan, running an English creative on one rake and a Hindi one on another so the same commute was covered in both languages. The wrap ran the length of the coach, including the panels between the doors.
A full wrap on a local train is seen from the platform by everyone waiting, not only by the passengers who board, so a single rake works every station on its line. Splitting language across rakes covered the whole commuter base without compromising either creative.
Every placement shown was booked directly with the media owner and photographed on the ground by our team.

Coverage: these figures reflect the advertising we were able to track across our data sources, a large sample but not every ad placed in India. Treat them as a directional, relative picture, not an absolute or complete record.
