Hiut Jeans – Interactive Store Installation (Conductive Ink)

The project ran for 6 weeks during which sales increased 30% in-store, web traffic to Hiut doubled and the project attracted global press/online/social coverage reaching in excess of 10million. "I think it will be safe to say it doubled our traffic on the site. At least. We got coverage all around the world on press and blogs because of it. We consider it a huge success.” David Hieatt – Joint Founder of Hiut Denim "We certainly noticed an increase in footfall. Due to some excellent social media coverage and many people came to check the window out even if they did not come in. That said, store visits increased at this time too along with sales of Hiut Jeans.  In October by 30% and again in November by a further 20%.” Danny from Rivet & Hide “
