Gravis: Stylish, Warm, and Native American?
Gravis has always succeeded by blending board-sport function with design-conscious fashion into quality shoes. When winter rolls near, I always start looking for some kicks that will look good AND keep my feet dry. Gravis has them this year. For trips to the slopes, I reccommend the Alpine Boots, which incorporate a warm, water-repellant combo of premium full-grain oiled leather, pigskin lining, and high traction soles. For apres ski, try the Mansfield, which bands casual good looks with water repellant performance. And for the night scene, definitely rock the ‘Gravis-chic’ Lowdown slip-ons, which are made of crocodile emboss full-grain leather. Also–for those who appreciate the combination of art and footwear, Gravis — with the help of NYC artist Alice Mizrachi — is launching a special release holiday series of shoes with a Native American theme. For this line, Gravis is twisting up the look of three classic styles — the Hi-Cut Tarmac, Ramble and Lawrence — with super-unique footbeds, toe stitch detailing, embroidery, and trim (to be released: October 1).
