    Situation

    An emotional
    connection with
    outdoor consumers

    Task

    Founded in 1996, Frogg Toggs built its reputation on providing lightweight, breathable rain gear at an affordable price. However, the brand struggled with market perception—consumers viewed it as a budget alternative rather than a premium performance brand. With competitors leveraging high-budget campaigns to create emotional connections with outdoor enthusiasts, Frogg Toggs needed a strategy to shift consumer perception and drive direct-to-consumer (DTC) growth.
    Key Challenges

    enhance brand
    perception to
    maximize impact

    • Limited brand awareness beyond core users
    • Perception as a “cheap alternative” rather than a top-tier performance brand
    • The need to leverage owned media efficiently to maximize impact
    Execution

    To reposition Frogg Toggs as a leader in breathable, durable outerwear, Unruled implemented a comprehensive strategy focused on performance-driven storytelling and digital-first engagement.

    Creative

    Creative featured aspirational images of consumers in outdoor pursuits. The Dare to Compare platform challenged consumers to find a true competitor on price and performance.

    Paid Media Planning, Buying and Optimization

    Given severe budget constraints, we leveraged paid digital where we could behaviorally target and win against other brands.

    Content Strategy and Execution

    We developed content that was interesting enough for the emotional play, but also practical in showcasing performance.

    Owned Media

    We boosted our opt-in email subscribers and social media fans to drive sales through these channels.

    Search Engine Optimization

    We developed a plan that optimized the listings of our most popular products and supported those listings with exclusive content, all while avoiding a search-term bidding war with our biggest customers, the big-box stores.

    Influencers

    We developed a comprehensive influencer campaign anchored by celebrity bass fishermen and outdoor enthusiasts.

    Affinity Group Targeting

    We targeted affinity groups most likely to purchase our products with paid digital media.

    Results

    Project by
    the numbers.

    The campaign delivered a dramatic shift in perception and revenue growth, positioning Frogg Toggs as a major force in the outdoor apparel industry.
