The Campaign

This campaign celebrated the launch of five new sneakers in a bold new silhouette: SOLO, defined by a single elastic band. As the brightest launch in Clove's history, it was built around the people who wear the brand every day, real healthcare professionals making a genuine impact in their communities.

Our Strategy

Clove's DNA has always been rooted in supporting the healthcare community, so the campaign had to be built around real people and honest stories. The tagline became: The Brightest Support In Healthcare.
The insight was layered. Healthcare professionals often seek out striking colorways as one of the few ways to express personal style beneath a uniform. The line spoke to that, described the collection for what it was, and landed a quiet wink: it was the healthcare professionals themselves who were the true brightest support for their patients, every single day.

With five bold colorways to work with, I interviewed and crafted five long-form and short-form stories alongside healthcare professionals with genuinely remarkable backgrounds. From a CRNA with over 60 years of experience to a medical student advocating for the LGBTQ+ community, every line of copy was written to feel empowering, unapologetic, and impossible to scroll past.

The Result

Every sneaker style sold out within one week of launch. The demand was strong enough that Clove restocked and relaunched twice more in the following year. The campaign ran across:

Product: Sneaker boxes, cards, and matching totes
Website: Product description pages and long-form blog posts
Social: Instagram, Facebook, and TikTok
Digital ads: Google and Meta
Out-of-home ads: Digital monitors in New York City and bus stops in Philadelphia
