This kind of targeted marketing is really hard to get right because you're targeting people that think 1. being targeted is not cool and 2. are always trying to do the new "thing" that nobody else is doing. Advertising to this group of people costs a lot of money because it has to be just perfect or you alienate the non-hipsters and the hipsters think you're square.

It looks like they're specifically trying to sell phones 20-30yr olds in the Mission District in San Francisco. Maybe other cities have this same style of hipster going, but that picture looks straight out of SF to my Bay Area eyes. Those Ray Ban style shades, the semi-beard, the button-down shirt w/plaid or whatever you call that. Yeah, I mean if you walk down Valencia St. this afternoon you're sure to see like 100 of that dude for sure, all riding their fixed gear bicycles and looking way too cool =) Whoah, that is some hipster-targeted marketing.
