Overview

A former enterprise tech CEO came to us with an idea: a new apparel brand based around a catch-phrase shouted during pick-up games in his old neighborhood. He wanted a line of sports apparel built around “Oh Boy!” but knew he needed a unique brand if he wanted to make a dent in an extremely competitive segment.

We looked at the sports lifestyle landscape and everything was hardcore, obsession, aggression. We loved the stories of the founder and his buddies growing up and playing sports from dawn to dusk. We didn’t just want the brand to say “Oh Boy!” We wanted the brand to represent that love of playing and competing and building friendships through sports.

Brand

We created brand print assets to emphasize Oh Boy's emotional value. We focused on finding the true spirit of athletic competition without resorting to expensive celebrity endorsements or copying other lifestyle brands. This agile grammar let us maintain a consistent look, feel, tone, and manner no matter if we were supplying a print ad or an investor package.

Website

OhBoySports.com

We designed a system of page templates for a sports-focused, social-focused content network. We evolved from a basic user interface that simplified alpha stage website development and then delivered a bolder, more exciting design for the proposed beta launch.

GoodGameStories.com

We created the Good Game Stories to provide magazine-style sports articles with a focus on Oh Boy's core values. In developing Oh Boy's content team, we built relationships with a roster of amazing sportswriters, many of whom were particularly connected to college basketball. GoodGameStories.com launched in March of 2015 with a feature story on the inimitable Dick Vitale, including amazing custom illustrations from French designer Florian Nicolle.

OhGear.com

To execute Oh Boy Sports' apparel sales, we built OhGear.com on a durable e-commerce content management system. We created custom graphics and established the organizational hierarchy for the store's navigation system. We worked with Oh Boy's retail fulfillment center to sync inventory and refine the company's approach to online retail. We leveraged the power of tags to make the entire inventory of Oh Gear easily sortable. We handed off the site to Oh Boy's retail management team.

WeAreTheGoodGame.com

To help build social capital and brand equity, we developed a custom website that scraped Instagram for the #goodgame and #ohboysports hashtags, then pulled the posts into a 'living grid' of athletes and fans showing their support for the Oh Boy brand. We made it all happen with custom PHP accessing the Instagram API.
