Malta’s home grown concept, Urban Jungle, present in over 20 locations around Europe and Africa, once again ahead of the game with the launch of a hot campaign across the Maltese Islands entitled #DressCodeSneakers.
Making a show at all the hot clubbing events in Malta which goes at full speed until the end of September, the campaign sets the spotlight on sneakers – highlighting SNEAKERS FOR ANY OCCASION and to break some fashion taboos along the way.
Heels and smarter shoes have been swapped for Sneakers amongst all Gen-Zers and Millennials. Present on catwalks and urban landscapes alike, sneakers are here to stay, and will not be going anywhere, anytime soon.
Urban Jungle offers a range of sneakers including the legendary Nike, Vans, Converse, Jordan, Puma, New Balance and Crocs brands.
According to statista.com, the sport shoes market has been growing rapidly in the last decade and is forecast to reach a value of 102 billion U.S. dollars by 2025.
In 2021, Nike (represented in Malta and various parts of Africa through Hudson) proved to be the brand of choice for many consumers: almost half of respondents in a recent survey owned something from Nike, regardless of their income level. In 2021, Nike generated 28 billion U.S. dollars in footwear sales, which was more than all the major brands put together.
Showcasing that the mantra vocalized in this campaign ‘Sneakers all morning, Sneakers all night, repeat’ has never been more relevant.
