Retail is not dead. But it needs to earn its place. In a world of e-commerce, the physical store still has a unique power - the feel of a running shoe, expert guidance, the perfect fit. adidas knows this, which is why the best running retailers from Germany and Austria were invited to adidas HQ in Herzogenaurach for an adrenaline-pumping running camp that reminded everyone what great retail is really about.

The Challenge

Reinvigorate top running retailers' passion for the adidas brand and the value of physical retail - while delivering genuine product experience and brand knowledge in a format that felt inspirational rather than instructional. At adidas HQ, the bar was high.
