Exciting Collaboration: 3sixteen x Saucony’s GUIDE v7.3s

On March 14, 2026, 3sixteen, the New York-based men’s wear brand, will launch an exhilarating collaborative model with Saucony, a renowned performance running lifestyle brand. This unique shoe, titled "GUIDE v7.3s", reinterprets the much-loved Guide 7 running shoes from the 2000s, a model celebrated for its superior stability and cushioning. By applying 3sixteen’s unique approach to material usage and a philosophy of aging, this shoe is poised to captivate fashion enthusiasts and runners alike.

Design Inspiration and Colorways

The GUIDE v7.3s will be available in two sophisticated colors: Graphite, a calm gray tone complemented with vibrant accents, and Lime, a nostalgic yellow-green reminiscent of retro fluorescent colors. The color palette draws inspiration from vintage computers, capturing the essence of early desktop PCs and CRT monitors, infused with an innovative twist that retains a vintage appeal while being fresh.

The upper features layered materials, combining a triangle-patterned mesh with premium suede and nubuck. The sole flaunts a vintage cream tone that echoes the aesthetics of the devices from the past, garnering a perfect blend of retro yet contemporary vibes. Notably, the exposed nylon-finished foam of the tongue gives a nod to the classic running shoes from the 90s and 2000s, enhancing its nostalgic aesthetics.

3sixteen: A Legacy of Quality

Founded in 2003 in New York, 3sixteen has cemented its reputation through the creation of premium selvedge denim in collaboration with top Japanese factories, emphasizing durability and timeless design. Their philosophy revolves around delivering clothing that not only lasts but also ages beautifully over time, becoming an integral part of the wearer’s wardrobe. This extends beyond denim to a variety of collections, where every element—from fabric to buttons—is carefully selected to enhance aging, transforming each piece into a cherished item that grows with the wearer.

In recent years, co-founder Andrew Chen and the brand community have embraced running and outdoor activities, leading to an expanded lineup of activewear. This shift signifies 3sixteen’s commitment to incorporating their core philosophy into the realms of sports and outdoor adventures, further enriching their offerings.

Collaborative Features

This collaboration marks the second venture between 3sixteen and Saucony, once again incorporating the signature “slightly pre-loved” look characteristic of 3sixteen. The shoe's design creatively melds various aesthetics, accentuating nostalgia while embracing modernity. The unique project also includes a specially designed shoe box, which encapsulates the true essence of the collaborative effort, allowing consumers to relish the unboxing experience as part of the overall narrative.

With each wear, the materials, including suede, mesh, and midsole, will age uniquely, allowing consumers to develop a personal connection with their shoes. As they break in, the GUIDE v7.3s promise to evolve beautifully, mirroring the journey of their owners.
