Gnara – Strategic Content & Social Growth Framework
Positioning Gnara for growth: from product innovation to purpose-driven outdoor brand
-
Gnara is an outdoor apparel brand known for its innovative Go Free™ leggings with GoFly® zipper technology. The brand focuses on inclusivity, empowerment, and sustainability, aiming to make outdoor experiences more comfortable and accessible for everyone.
-
Gnara wanted to move beyond being seen as a niche product innovation and reposition itself as a purpose-driven outdoor brand with cultural relevance and emotional resonance. The task was to build a scalable content and social growth framework that could increase awareness, engagement, and loyalty.
-
The new framework was rolled out through a multi-channel social campaign, blending user-generated content, influencer activations, and branded storytelling. The launch balanced entertainment (e.g. GRWM TikTok trends), education (feature explainers), and conversational content (founder Q&As, behind-the-scenes).

Strategic Messaging: Refined the brand voice around empowerment, inclusivity, and sustainability, positioning Gnara as a symbol of freedom for every body.
Content Pillars: Built a framework across four pillars — Conversational, Educational, Promotional, and Entertainment — mapped to the customer journey (awareness to loyalty).
