GRAVIS HVW8 PACK

HVW8 is short for Heavyweight Production House out of Montreal, Canada. It was created in 1998 by a group of like-minded artists and designers. The group used this to create a vehicle for their art and design work. Since 2003, HVW8 have worked on the Politically Minded series, which is where these sneakers with Gravis come in. The series depicts 'portraits and homages of people, activists, political figures and cultural icons whose work, lives and sometimes deaths, reveal vital details about the reality of our world and the shape of our own social political perspectives.'

Gravis got together with HVW8 to develop these three sneakers to coincide with the project (which will show in Los Angeles), in a year that has America looking at itself politically like never before. The sneakers themselves are quality. All three are very militant in their choices of colours, patterns and materials with soft suede, heavy-duty leather and the always practical canvas. Each one bears the words 'political minded' printed along the mid-panels.
