The fabrication process was extensive and detailed. Our work included painting the coolers and racks and printing and applying branding decals to the exterior. We inlaid dimensional letters into the interior lid, and an acrylic piece capped the cooler chest – all printed to look like frosted glass. Inside the cooler itself, clear acrylic clothing dividers refracted and enhanced the blue LED lighting effect.

The seeding kits were customized for each athlete, making no two coolers alike. Each kit was branded with a plaque of the athlete’s name, custom interior plaques, and sticker packs.

A total of 26 seeding kits were fabricated and shipped worldwide in custom, insulated shipping boxes. Because the coolers had to be cold upon arrival, our timing had to be dialed for a successful activation. We were so thrilled (and star stuck) watching athletes like Justin Jefferson, Jordan Thompson, Jonathan Taylor, and Monica Jones unbox the seeding kits on Instagram.
