UN:IK Clothing: the streetwear brand that found its unfair channel.

UN:IK is the home of independent unisex streetwear — young creatives, exclusive drops, collabs from local clubs all the way to Guinness. My job: build them a performance channel the competition ignores. Today Pinterest drives around £96K a month in attributed revenue — at returns Meta can't match.

(01) — Where it started

Everyone fights in the same auction.

UN:IK is the home of independent unisex streetwear — young creatives, exclusive drops, collabs with everyone from padel clubs to Guinness. Great brand, loyal audience. The problem was the same one every UK streetwear brand has: everybody's growth plan is the same Meta auction, and it gets more expensive every quarter.

The brand needed a second engine — one where fashion performs and the competition is still asleep.

(02) — The play

Pinterest, done natively.

Pinterest is where people plan what they'll wear next — and for fashion it has quietly matured into a real performance channel. We built the account the way the platform rewards:

  • Native creatives — shots and copy that blend into the feed instead of screaming "ad"
  • 15 countries targeted from day one — streetwear travels
  • Respecting the ~2-week learning phase — no panic edits while the algorithm calibrated
  • Account structure built with the official Pinterest agency team
(03) — The numbers

8.16x across the account. Better than Meta.

The proof landed fast: an 8.16x total checkout ROAS across the account — best campaigns between 9x and 11x — and it beat the brand's Facebook ROAS. But this isn't a lucky screenshot: the channel kept compounding, and today it does around £96K a month in attributed revenue. Pinterest went from experiment to permanent growth engine.

Pinterest Ads results — 8.16x total checkout ROAS, £96K attributed revenue
Pinterest Ads · six weeks · 8.16x total checkout ROAS, £96K attributed — a case I've published openly, so the numbers stay. And it kept climbing from here.
(04) — The verdict

Straight from the founder, mid-campaign.

No polished testimonial — just the message that landed while the campaigns were running:

Founder's message: this is impressive — we target 1-2k per day revenue from Pinterest working with you
The founder's own words, verbatim — targeting £1–2K per day from Pinterest alone. Name redacted 🔒

Pinterest is now a permanent line in the budget — the unfair channel the rest of the UK streetwear scene still hasn't priced in.

while everyone bids on Meta, the planners are on Pinterest 📌
