HOKA: the brief is Fly Human Fly

Us: let’s make runners run in the sky
like a flock of birds

Hoka: Wow…What? How? Ok!!

6 months of figuring it out later...

Everyone knows the creative landscape for
performance brands is crowded and often looks
the same. But for a brand that is genuinely different,
we needed to show up differently.

Together, we carved our own path and created a
new space: The World of Joyful Performance.

Layout Inspiration

In order to establish a deeply impactful presence and convey the full personality of Hoka, we made sure to elevate the tagline “Fly Human Fly” to be as bold and demanding as the logo, while highlighting key visuals to feel liberating and organic.


















Colors

We wanted to bring joy, expression and brightness
to HOKA to exercise the free feeling of running.
With this, we’ve brought in bright colors that are
very vibrant, fun, and bold that will have consumers
connecting to the beautifully ellectic palette
HOKA has to offer.

























Stay tuned. More to come...
