HOKA and Foot Locker Debut Gucci Mane’s ‘Right Shoe, Wrong Gucci’ Campaign for Bondi 7 Stealth Tech

A 33-second spot taps a viral lookalike joke to spotlight an all-black, max-cushion runner now promoted in Foot Locker stores.

Overview

  • The campaign video is live on HOKA and Foot Locker social channels as part of the sneaker’s rollout.
  • In the ad, two Foot Locker employees who mirror Gucci Mane communicate only through his signature ad-libs with on-screen translations, ending with his “Guwop!” sign-off.
  • The concept plays on the internet meme comparing Gucci Mane to NBA referee James Williams.
  • The Bondi 7 Stealth Tech features an all-black upper with translucent mono mesh, speed lacing, and graphic reflective waves over HOKA’s EVA midsole and Meta-Rocker cushioning.
  • Foot Locker is promoting the sneaker as available nationwide, extending HOKA’s cushioned road silhouette into streetwear-focused retail.
