DEICHMANN’s Bluey products will be available in stores and online in Germany, the UK and 25 European countries, including Spain and Poland from 31st March.
The launch will be supported with an Omnichannel marketing campaign led by 744 advertising agency across the regions. Their Online-Video commercial will recreate recognisable signature elements from Bluey, for real life – which are sure to surprise and delight shoppers.

“We are very pleased about this exciting collaboration. As Europe’s largest shoe retailer, scalability of the campaigns is key – when selecting our license partnerships. Bluey is not only an international phenomenon but represents cultural values which are highly relevant for our consumers across Europe”, says Drazen Pehar, Head of Brands & Licensing at DEICHMANN SE.
