This is another interesting collaboration of Kickers I found that links to the philosophy 'Feel Good' of the brand. Kickers are partnering with writers and cartoonists, Mick bunnage and Jon Link to produce a suite of cartoons animated short films in association with Modern Toss - all in the pair's crude and utterly hilarious style
Examples of Modern Toss cartoons characters:
One half of the duo Mick Bunnage said:
"It's not everyday you get asked to work with a piece of iconic footwear is it? We were also impressed to discover that the history of the Kickers brand centred on French students lobbing bricks at each other in the late 1960's."
"We've done a top notch Kick Hi 'red' with two flies licking the stitching and exchanging a topical observation. We've ordered a pair each already. Tasty!"
Modern Toss have developed 3 strands of film themes which appear as short skits in each of the 3 episodes that make up the Kickers presents Random Bandits series. Featuring a mixture of brand new and classic Modern Toss characters, oversized boots and flies mulling over some very bizarre celeb rituals.
The Random Bandits sketches are set to feature:
'Fly Talk'
A pair of celebrity-gossiping insects voiced by star of The Office MacKenzie Crook.
'Shoe Horn'
A footwear obsessed shopper.
'Dave Beeline'
A rowdy driver who refuses to accept the existence of any places not recognised by his sat nav.
This followed by Lou's post earlier - a 'cute' advert so here is another 'cute' videos :) enjoy!
