What formats are used in the OOH rollout?

A multi-format mix—wildpostings, street furniture, transit, and DOOH—maximizes frequency and citywide presence. Creative variations keep the recognition mechanic fresh across placements.

Why does OOH fit Depop’s community story?

Like high-impact OOH, Depop’s marketplace thrives on visibility and talkability. City surfaces create repeated encounters that fuel word-of-mouth and organic reach beyond billboards.

Whether it’s an old jersey with a new lease on life or red cowboy boots that somehow suit everyone, ‘Doppelgänger’ turns everyday sightings into invitations to discover—and resell—great taste.
