Foot Locker has created the first ever AR unboxing experience on Snapchat prior to the launch of the new Gatorade AJ1’s.
Usually, only a few privileged sneaker influencers get to unbox new sneakers ahead of their official launch date. And while they do so, millions of sneaker heads are left with nothing but waiting for these influencers to share some snippets of their experience on social media.
What if this did not have to be the only way? What if everyone got to unbox the new Air Jordans this time?
BBDO New York created the first ever AR unboxing experience on Snapchat. This way, thousands of Foot Locker fans got to discover the much awaited Gatorade AJ1’s before they hit the stores on 12/26.
On top of providing a sneak 3D preview of the sneakers, the innovative Snapchat Lens also invites users to “take them for a walk” – and even dance – around their living room, and explore their surroundings looking for hidden extras like a basketball hoop for example.
By tapping into the unboxing phenomenon, Foot Locker has turned a product demo into a highly shareable experience that is rooted in sneaker culture, and on a platform that their target audience loves.
Is this the first of many Snapchat unboxings?
