OnusFootwear
More than just a graffiti inspired skateboarding footwear and apparel company, Onus Footwear and Apparel is living proof of no matter what you've done or where you've came from, the choice to change our direction is on us. I've always been a burden to my community, and I wanted to change that, but not only that, I wanted to inspire and help people who felt like me growing up to find a positive outlet to utilize and profit from the negative skill set you developed on the street or wherever you may have picked them up from. It doesn't have to stay negative. There's always a positive side.

About Benjamin Besgrove
My name's Benjamin Michael Besgrove. I started out just skateboarding around with spraypaint and markers, tagging my name everywhere I can. Then I got good enough and got my first few commission jobs to paint business logos for a few local businesses. I was then invited to events such as Paint Louis, and Paint Memphis to participate and paint my art on some of the run down parts in cities, a few more years went by and decided to change my canvas from buildings to clothing and shoes. A positive gradual change out of a negative lifestyle. Finally, all those nights I risked my freedom and my life just to share my art with the general public is starting to pay off, and inspire positive change in my community and yours as well. I want to start a non profit organization to give back to my community
