Augusto has partnered with adidas to unveil the new All Blacks and Black Ferns jerseys, made with recycled plastics, via a 60â hero video and social content series.
The jerseys are made from Primeblue material; an adidas initiative made with Parley Ocean Plastic.
Itâs the first time a Black Ferns jersey has been specifically tailored to accommodate the demands of the womenâs game.
Launching at a fully sustainable event at the Maritime Room, event goers walked through an immersive digital water tunnel before the jersey was unveiled.
adidas Brand Communications Manager, Andy Lane says: âOur aim was to bring the All Blacks and Black Ferns together under a common ambition: represent the jersey, and inspire those that come next.
âWorking with Augusto was really important to us as they fully understand the significance of the launch moment, and their storytelling always comes through super clearly.â
Augusto ECD, Adam Thompson says: âItâs not everyday you get to work with an iconic brand set on changing the course of sports history, whilst helping to make the world a better place. Itâs been a huge privilege for us to work with our clients to help them bring this initiative to life.â
The campaign also features a 12 week social plan of stills, stories and IGTV content.
