Ugly boots

ugg Ugly boots

What happened to the unfashionable brand they dimly call ugly-boots? Lifestyle branding with a certain style and grace.

For somebody very disconnected with the product I’m not exactly the target audience for this campaign. So let us be honest, dont conclude that what I say means anything, I’m especially unlikely to suggest that it represents peace with nature, sympathetic living and a life rooted by the goodness of the outdoors!

Brand Reality

by Dan Sellars on April 2, 2010


Ije Nwokorie, Senior Strategist, Wolff Olins – Asks ‘Do brands matter in a recession?’ The short answer is if your brand is just about image then no. Competition will catch up. People flip in and out of perceived ‘brand image’ by mood and ultimately what’s in your wallet. But if your a world class brand it’s always about reality. Putting that little suggestion of empathy back to your customers and taking a view on what’s happening in the world. True to what you believe is reassuring and trustworthy.
