blissfeel trail is lululemon's first road-to-trail shoe, made to take women further.
This campaign matched the shoe's dare-worthy specs, and invited runners to venture into the unknown.

lululemon sometimes adds "love notes" on gear: hidden messages designed to add depth and connection, contextualized to the moment you may be in when you read them. On the restfeel slides, I wrote "happiness" on the left, and "creates" on the right, creating a message that reads as a continuous loop, one step at a time.

APRIL FOOLS 2019
Mountain Equipment Co-op had a limited run of the iconic Rad Pants to relaunch, so the we had some fun with an April Fools’ spin. We had a retro photo shoot and made a suite of assets to roll out on all channels, all in a tone true to the Rad Pant legacy. Much to the delight of MEC shoppers, the pants were not a prank and sold out in less than 48 hours.
