Brief Explanation
This campaign was conceived as soon as the final whistle blew on the World Cup. It was
created for Nike Italy, who sponsors several of the cup-lifting heroes and, for the occasion,
produced a line of golden boots called Celebration. These radio-commercials recall a long
period of time -from the 40ies to the late 60ies when Italian-made products were the pride of the
nation, advertising was charmingly naïve, and jingles where business as usual. Each of the
commercials features one Italian player masquerading as a fictional Italian product, each one of
the commercials is treated in a different style, each one of them is hinting at a popular “vintage”
Italian radio campaign.
