Heavrolet (Main Label)
Creator | 11/2013 - Current
San Diego, CA & Los Angeles, CA
HEAVROLET is a clothing-based art project conceptualizing Southern California lifestyles I observed from my upbringing. I used to do merch for my friends in bands and helped with designs until i realized I wanted to do it for myself.
I created the idea when I turned 18 in 2013 and the first release was Spring/Summer 2014. Since then, new releases of shirts, sweatshirts, hoodies, hats, pants, socks, and 1/1's have occurred 2-5 times per year.
