Sweden’s gram initiated a project with Xbox for the release of Forza Motorsport 3. The result is three pairs of individually handpainted gram shoes – inspired by car paint – that are up for auction on Ebay. All funds received from this auction will be donated to “Lovely Days“, a charity project, who’s aim is to motivate young people to partake in creative activities in their spare time. For those interested in bidding, the action starts this Thursday, October 29th, 2009.
