Hav A Sole Photos
Some of the youth from the @wattsrams have accepted our challenge! They have now joined the amazing Emily and Jeckson. The bottom line is this, we want to inspire and lift each other up even while being at home. These are difficult times but together we can make it out the other side stronger!
Next up for our #havAsole workout challenge is our girl Emily! Tune in tomorrow at 10am to our IG Live. Set that reminder, we’d love to have you there!
#havAsole sneaker delivery for the youth! Today we pulled up on Jeckson after he accepted the first #havAsole fitness and reading challenge. @dereklfisher helped him pick out the Bordeaux 7’s which just happen to be his first Jordan’s ever. Motivation - one pair at a time!
Huge thank you to @dereklfisher for surprising and helping Jeckson knock out his push ups! We’re just getting started! #havAsole
During this challenging time, while Hav A Sole is respecting social distancing, we are searching for ways to keep our youth active and inspired. That’s why we are excited to announce a fun new campaign for middle and high school kids. Hav A Sole is challenging each of the chosen participants to complete a physical exercise and a reading program that will keep them sharp during their idle time. The participants will then report their progress on social media, and once completed Team Hav A Sole will make a very special sneaker delivery right to their doorstep. First up, Jeckson ( @ptsd.52j ) of @goodcitymentors. Senior at Bernstein High. We’ll be going live tmrw morning at 10am to begin the workout. Please join us.
Really missing our young boys over at @goodcitymentors! Hope you’re all doing well. TbT#
Just recently, @dashx10 reached one of his childhood dreams! Super proud of my BFF for his @footlockerla ad for Airmax Day. No matter the timeline, it’s never too late to chase and achieve your dreams. Thank you @footlocker for believing in the LA native!
Our last event was in Oakland before lockdown. Totally miss that one on one connection and can’t wait to get back Hope you’re all staying safe. Sending love your way IG fam!
Just found out that there was a fire at @alexandriahousela and the women and children there lost mostly everything. Thankfully no one was injured. If you can donate, please visit alexandriahouse.org.
We have to postpone our #havAsole fundraiser for the second time. Our event on the 31st will be pushed until we can get a grip on the Coronavirus. Thank you for the love and support! We sold over 70 tickets.
Since July 1st, 2014, team #havAsole has given out 22,599 pairs of sneakers valued at $1,512,660. One point five milli, crazy to think about.
It’s all love!

The Air Force 1’s? Yea those are cool. What’s better? The smiles, the laughs and that one on one connection between two people. Yea that’s what we need. Thank you @theone713 for always support when we’re in the Bay Area.
It was the last thing we wanted but we made the decision to head home to LA. We feel it’s best to take a moment to see exactly what’s going on with the Corona Virus. Sorry Portland but thank you for understanding. We will see you soon.

Every mile driven, every minute on the road, (over 3,500 miles and 3,300 minutes) - It was all for moments like this, to simply put a smile on young boys and girls around the country. To let them know they deserve love. Thank you to everyone that helped support this mission that impacts so many. We couldn’t do it without you! #havAsoleEIGHTfor8 X @bgc_indy
A friendship defined by a photo. #havAsole
