These are limited edition - and those who are interested can register their interest on Guinness’s website. The campaign playfully mimics the seriousness and gleam found in sneaker launches while celebrating pubs this festive season. Jennifer Gleeson, senior brand manager at Diageo, said that the campaign underlines the iconic Guinness serve while celebrating the festive season and the pubs that play a key role in culture and communion, especially throughout winter. The campaign will also encompass press and outdoor activations showing the ‘Foot Pints’ making their way to boozers throughout the UK. A limited edition was produced, and customers can register their interest on Guinness’s website.
