Sharp List: 3sixteen x Herman Miller Eames Lounge Chair

The dudes behind 3sixteen know a thing or two about creating classics that age well — the New York label’s raw Japanese denim jeans are among the finest in the world, especially with regard to the way they fade and crease and gain patina over time.

So, when 3sixteen’s team was given a once-in-a-lifetime chance to collaborate with iconic furniture maker Herman Miller, they stayed right in their wheelhouse. They decked out the famed Eames Lounge Chair and Ottoman in a natural vegetable-tanned leather upholstery that’ll darken and deepen gorgeously over the decades to come. Only three sets were created and they’ll never be reproduced, but don’t worry — if you miss out, 3sixteen plans to document the chairs’ aging process as time goes on.
