MOZO Repositions from Workwear to Lifestyle Brand

MOZO

Known for its durable culinary footwear, MOZO aimed to evolve into a broader lifestyle brand while maintaining its loyal chef audience.

Industry: Apparel / Culinary / Lifestyle

Location: United States

Project Scope: Brand positioning, real-time social campaign, influencer strategy

Solution Provided: Crafted a real-time, lifestyle-focused campaign—#MOZOlife—blending influencer content, event coverage, and social storytelling to expand the brand’s reach beyond kitchens and into everyday culture.

The Challenge

MOZO needed to shift perception: from a niche utility shoe for kitchen crews to a lifestyle accessory for anyone inspired by culinary culture. The risk? Alienating their core while reaching a broader, more diverse audience.

The Solution

  • Brand Narrative Through Real-Time Content: #MOZOlife centered on showing how chefs wear MOZO from work to play—leveraging live content from food and culture events.
  • Influencer Integration: Renowned chefs became the face of the campaign, wearing MOZO in both professional and casual settings—showing off the brand’s flexibility.
  • Social Storytelling Engine: Content from the campaign fueled other channels, reinforcing the narrative of MOZO as a movement—not just a shoe brand.

The Results

The campaign ignited a shift in brand energy and audience engagement:

  • 25% growth in social followers

  • 48% lift in referral traffic to the website

  • 3,067% increase in content engagement over three months

  • Surge in user-generated #MOZOlife content that catalyzed a community-driven movement

With a new identity grounded in real-world use and shared stories, MOZO stepped into a broader lifestyle market—without losing its soul.
