Collection: braver X pia

We met Pia in 2021 via email as a result of Pia wanting to order custom prints from us, but this soon led us to conversations like how we like our coffee, how much we loved to lift weights through to some personal challenges we were facing in life. Resonating on many levels, and especially on the lines of the essence of being human, a friendship flourished.

We then met in person for the first time in April 2024, at IPF Nationals for Powerlifting in Potchefstroom. We were both there to compete, and our friendship naturally went to the next level that comes from that in person connection. Having both qualified to go on to compete at the IPF Classic World Champs in June 2024 over in Lithuania, I got to experience my first ever international competition with Pia not only there as my friend, but also as my Nutrition coach.

Our bond continues to grow strong, and with it I believe, being so inspired by one another, we have been an overflow of “let’s put that on a shirt” which, in a nutshell, is what led us to collaborate here at Braver. We are very excited to keep adding to our collections and bring you prints that cover a range of feels that are both PIA and BRAVER all in one.
