“Every-Step on the Way X Grasshoppers”
A cinematic tribute to coloured culture, identity, and memory—told through the legacy of a shoe that walked beside a community through generations. Set in the heart of Grassy Park, this short film unpacks the powerful relationship between the iconic Grasshopper and the everyday lives of the people who made it more than just footwear.
Through intimate visuals—like a Vienna and chips parcel from Bona, laughter on the stoep, and the unmistakable pride of stepping out in fresh Grasshoppers—the film paints a textured portrait of life in Grassy Park. These small but meaningful moments highlight how culture lives in the details, and how style becomes a statement of belonging.
“Every-Step on the Way X Grasshoppers” is more than a story about a shoe; it’s about legacy, community, and the streets that raised us. A celebration of where we’ve been—and every step that’s brought us here.
