Gram was founded in Stockholm, april 2005 by Alexis Holm and Anna Stenvi. The companys primary goal is to design and produce a range of unique shoes, that reflect the present, yet rely on the past.

“There is something familiar about our shoes, yet they do not look like anything previous. The idea was that they should feel as though they have always existed, just as new in their look as they are classic in their style”
- Alexis Holm, co-founder gram.
