NIKE BY YOU: TWO WEEKS OF LIVE STITCHING

A two-week in-store embroidery studio at Nike Eaton Centre.

01The brief

Run a two-week in-store Stitch Studio where Nike shoppers could make a piece their own with icons, fonts and sayings.

02Our approach

We set up a live embroidery station inside the store. Guests chose an icon, font or saying from the Stitch Studio menu, handed their selection to our team and watched it stitched on the spot. A fixed menu kept every piece on-brand and fast to produce, while still giving each guest real choice. Embroidery suited the Nike product: durable, textured and premium.

Design

The Stitch Studio menu offered icons, fonts and sayings. Guests customized their pieces, and every option was pre-approved to keep the output on-brand.

Method

Why embroidery: stitched lettering is durable and textured, reads as premium, and a live machine draws a crowd. Small personalizations stitch out quickly, so guests get their piece back fast.

Logistics and setup

We ran the studio continuously in-store for two weeks alongside Nike Eaton Centre staff, with Narrative PR.

Why it works: a long-running studio turns personalization into a reason to visit the store, not just a one-night moment.

03What we made

  • Two-week in-store embroidery station
  • Stitch Studio design menu: icons, fonts and sayings
  • Live-embroidered apparel for shoppers

04The result

We delivered two straight weeks of live personalization in one of Toronto’s busiest malls.
