BASE LONDON LAUNCHES AW16 CAMPAIGN FOR 21ST ANNIVERSARY
A few of you may now have seen the short films I directed for the launch of British footwear brand Base London’s AW16 campaign featuring some of London’s finest menswear aficionados. Moving away from the more east end market, they’ve successfully launched a campaign to commemorate their 21st Anniversary that caters to guys from all walks of life. This is in the form of a new line of premium footwear and a series of short films shot in different parts of London.
With striking styles and leather soles throughout, the XXI collection is a more premium capsule range of footwear for Base London, identified by distinctive red leather linings and commemorative branding.
The set of five short films celebrates both the dynamic city that the brand calls home and the diverse range of customers that have contributed to Base London’s 21 years of success.
My family; We Are Outlanders star in the penultimate video, demonstrating the flexibility and versatility of Base London shoes in a casual basketball match and out & about around East London’s cutting-edge creative hub, Shoreditch.
For those who weren’t able to attend the launch party, All five films will roll out over the next couple months on the Base London blog, social media channels and YouTube. So keep your eyes peeled since we also have exclusive Q&As where we share about our choices in footwear and style!
What do you guys think of the videos and how would you wear Base London shoes?
Sound off below!
Dress with confidence,
