Jay and I have been anxiously waiting for these to come in ever since Andrew from 3Sixteen extended us the special order. I was even more anxious considering Jay has actually seen these 3Sixteen x Quoddy Deck Chukkas in person before he ordered them! I could expect no less then superb quality with these hand sewn beauties.  With not many brands exploring the collaboration possibilities of classic American footwear brands, Quoddy was a perfect choice to compliment 3Sixteen’s new aesthetic and direction. Above, you can see when we opened the box we were welcomed with a thick piece of leather etched with both brand names. Totally handsewn, full leather vamp, antique brass eyelets, and lock stitching, it’s all about the details.

First up is Jay’s pair made of Peanut Grizzly leather:

Next up is my pair with Navy leather:

I know I’m sounding repetitive but I can’t get over how nice these things are. Quality is straight butter!!

These are not available for sale in store as of now, but this is a little preview of what’s to come from 3Sixteen…

…Who’s down for some nautical adventures?
