NoTwoWays UK Footwear Brand

NTW is a London-based sneaker brand built to disrupt with design-led drops and defiance. After researching its roots and doing user interviews, I identified the design target: “The Pitch Punk.” This resulted in a relevant solution, repositioning Notwoways as a cult brand bridging UK sneakers with America’s love for soccer and British punk.

Process:

By starting with competitive analysis and interviews to understand who NoTwoWays' audience really is, I was able to pinpoint a clear design target and shape a strategy that speaks directly to our consumers. From there, I built a brand strategy specifically around that target and selected influencers who embody the same ethos.
