The challenge

For the launch of its XT-6 GORE-TEX collection, Salomon tasked SAUVAGE111® with amplifying the silhouette's transition from mountain trails to metropolitan streets across London and Paris.The challenge was threefold: penetrate the gorpcore-obsessed fashion capitals, reach a highly selective streetwear audience that values both authenticity and aesthetics.

our solution

Urban Infiltration Through Hyperlocal Precision

We designed a wild posting strategy that mirrored the XT-6's own duality, technical precision meets raw urban energy. The approach was structured around three core pillars

Neighborhood Cartography: We mapped the cultural epicenters where gorpcore thrives and streetwear culture dictates trends

Aesthetic Integration: Rather than traditional billboard placements, we deployed wild posting installations that felt native to each urban environment.

Cultural Amplification: Beyond physical installations, we created a content ecosystem that documented the campaign's presence across both cities.
