Best Practices

• •Embrace 'Sanuk' (Fun): Infuse joy and playfulness into your language. Use lighthearted words, humor where appropriate, and an optimistic outlook. Remember the brand's origin: 'make people smile...and pass it on.'
• •Prioritize Comfort in Your Messaging: Continuously reinforce the 'Never Uncomfortable' promise. Use descriptive words that evoke softness, cushioning, and ease (e.g., 'cloud-like,' 'pillowy,' 'crazy comfy').
• •Speak the Language of Adventure (Casually): Use an informal, approachable, and relatable tone. Connect with the desire for freedom, exploration, and coastal/outdoor living, but keep it grounded and not overly extreme.
• •Highlight Eco-Consciousness Authentically: When discussing sustainable materials or practices, be genuine and straightforward. Avoid greenwashing; instead, focus on the positive impact and the brand's commitment to protecting 'happy places.'
• •Be Visually and Emotionally Evocative: Use language that paints a picture of the lifestyle Sanuk embodies – sunny days, relaxed moments, and joyful experiences. Connect with emotions like happiness, freedom, and contentment.
