adidas city series - Philadelphia and Atlanta



Here's a short from the HVW8 excursion to Philly and Atlanta last month in celebration of the adidas city series. Black Spade rocked the live set, Dan DSTRBO did the painting and Ty G with Rich Medina, in Philly, and with Daz-I-Kue and Karl Injex, in ATL, laced the tunes. Lot's of fun, BIG UPS to Taayib, Kaos and everyone who made the mini tour happen. Shot and edited by the Frolab.

NEW HVW8 Gravis collaboration.











Just got back from the ASR tradeshow in San Diego and got to check out the latest collaboration with Gravis. Here's a preview -- looking sharp! The Political Minded Series (for the conscious sole) features Dan DSTRBO's infamous 'body camo' and Tyler's 'Political Minded' font while the High Plains Drifter features Gene's cloud shapes. The HVW8 Political Minded Series and the High Plains Drifter will be out this summer.
