Brand Tone

Enthusiastic, community-oriented, encouraging, welcoming, motivational, passionate, and expert, focused on promoting an active, modern outdoor lifestyle.

Brand Values

• •Love for Nature and the Outdoors
• •Quality and Performance
• •Community and Togetherness
• •Expertise and Guidance
• •Active Lifestyle

Best Practices

• •Lead with Passion: Always start from the core belief: "We love nature." Use enthusiastic and energetic language that reflects a genuine passion for the outdoors.
• •Emphasize "We" and "You": Foster a sense of community by using inclusive language. Frame the brand as a partner in the customer's active life ("Let's go for a walk," "We'll help you find the perfect fit").
• •Balance Performance with Style: Acknowledge both the technical aspects (e.g., "GTX membrane," "cushioned midsole") and the aesthetic appeal ("timeless style," "urban chic"). This speaks to their unique position of combining fashion and outdoors.
• •Be Action-Oriented: Use strong verbs and an active voice. Words like "explore," "conquer," "discover," "join," and "challenge" align with the brand's purpose and encourage customer engagement.
• •Incorporate the Location and Community: Regularly mention the physical store, Hesede Hovedgård, and community events like "Akeleje Walks." This grounds the brand in a real, tangible community and adds a unique selling proposition that online-only retailers cannot match.

Social Perception

Perceived as a specialized, premium retailer for a niche market of active, style-conscious individuals in Denmark. Gains credibility through association with major brands, offers a unique upscale-yet-rustic charm from its physical store's location, and actively fosters a positive and loyal local customer base through community events.
