With the release of their collaboration with Self Edge & Samurai right around the corner, Andrew & Johan link up to talk about the project. They reflect back on their close relationship with Self Edge over the years and how it opened the door for their own denim development, and the role Samurai played in their early days of falling in love with Japanese denim. They also reflect on how car culture has played such a large role in the creative direction of the project and what it means to them. In many ways, this collaboration project is a full circle moment for 3sixteen and this podcast is meant to share a little bit of the history and inspiration behind it. The collaboration releases in store and online this Thursday, April 17th.Our theme music is by GLOMFollow 3sixteen on Instagram | TikTokwww.3sixteen.com

New Beginnings with Andrew & Johan
Johan and Andrew traveled last week to Austin, TX to celebrate the opening of Self Edge’s newest location. While there, they took some time to sit down and chat about the city, their initial impressions of the store, and what Self Edge has meant to 3sixteen over the years. Andrew reflects on how partnering up at Self Edge over a decade ago helped informed 3sixteen’s approach to retail. Johan shares about our recent warehouse move and another major one scheduled for this summer: a brand new storefront in Los Angeles.

Wesley Scott on evolving tastes, sustainability, and design influences
As our SS24 collection continues to roll out, Andrew sat down with 3sixteen's lead designer Wesley Scott to talk about the season and how it came together. Wesley's been with the company for almost a decade and we wanted to take time to share about his journey with the brand and how his approach has changed - but more importantly, how it's stayed the same. We touch on his time in grad school studying sustainability and how it means different things to different brands. And we close things out with the importance of bringing personal passion and taste into what we do at 3sixteen.
