Share Your Fire.

Fans want to be as close to their idols as possible. Not that easy in times when social distancing defines the world. For the launch of its global Olympic partnership, Allianz Insurance wants to give back a piece of the lost connection between Swiss sports fans and their stars and presents: Share Your Fire. The core element of this integrated campaign is a strictly limited collection of upcycled sportswear, hand-made from the original jerseys actually worn by Swiss star athletes.

 


Case study

 
Seeing a plane in the sky is a sure trigger for wanderlust. Swiss airline Edelweiss uses this fact to promote its new direct flights to Buenos Aires to a young and smartphone-savvy target group. Therefore we turn sophisticated real time flight data into the augmented reality game “Catch a Flight to Buenos Aires”. It lets you use your smartphone to seek and catch Edelweiss planes in the sky bound for Buenos Aires in real time and win flights to go there. Catch a Flight ranked No.3 among the Swiss entertainment apps, increased flight bookings to Buenos Aires by 24% and website traffic by 400%.

Over several months, the original, worn jerseys were collected, cut into thousands of pieces and handcrafted into 100 new shirts by fashion designer Julia Seemann and Olympic snowboard medallist Iouri Podladtchikov.
