Activewear retailer Lululemon has launched a fully integrated global ad campaign titled 'Feel,' which aims to target international markets, Gen Zer's, and male shoppers. The campaign itself will focus its messaging on mental health and wellbeing, rather than fitness and exercise.
The new campaign will feature many of the brand's go-to ambassadors, including Joe Wicks, Deja Riley, Akin Akman, and more. Central to the campaign's messaging is the question of how customers feel psychologically when wearing Lululemon activewear. “Supporting our guests’ desire to feel their best in any moment" is at the heart of Lululemon's products says the company's Chief Brand Officer, Nikki Neuburger.
As a whole, 'Feel' represents a significant shift for the brand as it consciously looks to reach new audiences by making contact with younger generations and male shoppers – two demographics that have shown a steadily growing interest in the brand.
