More often than not, you find yourself running into a campaign that is executed flawlessly, and you find yourself thinking, 'I wish the team behind it would break it down. That's exactly how we felt when we saw the Clarks Originals Wallabee Lite campaign.

"Everything we do with Clarks Originals is rooted in our rich 200 year history and fostering what we call our cultural universe."

Mercer: It’s been 40 years since the Wallabee officially launched – how do you maintain that ethos while adjusting for modernity?
Clarks Originals Team:

"To maintain this critical heartbeat of the brand, we purposefully worked with models and creatives that we have built relationships with over the years and who are genuine fans of the brand to ensure there is a warm community feel to the entire campaign."

Mercer: What’s one detail in the campaign that people should know about?
