Morning Update: Dick’s Sporting Goods unveils first campaign aimed at women
AdWeek: Ad of the Day: Dick’s Sporting Goods Goes the Extra Mile in Its First Campaign for Women
Athletic women are increasingly wearing workout gear as everyday fashion. And so are women who never go near a gym—giving rise to the “Athleisure” fashion trend. And with women’s activewear booming, Dick’s Sporting Goods is prepping its first ad campaign aimed directly at fitness-minded women.
Dick’s CMO Lauren Hobart gave Adweek an exclusive preview of a new spot—”Choices: Who Will You Be?”—from Anomaly, New York, that’s scheduled to break May 15 on ESPN, E!, Bravo and other networks. It’s the first ad to target women specifically in the retailer’s broader “Who Will You Be?” campaign, which launched in March.
