Honda fans and shoe enthusiasts alike are sure to love the new limited edition HT3 Driving Shoe that is now available through JackThreads. This new shoe was created through a collaborative effort between JackThreads, Thrillist, and Honda to design a new shoe inspired by the design of the 2016 Honda Civic. The new HT3 Driving Shoe has been designed to reflect the three core aspects of Honda Design.

The concept for the HT3 Driving Shoe was originally thought up by a team at Thrillist who then reached out to JackThreads to fully bring the concept to life. JackThreads then worked with Jarad Hall from Honda R&D America to help ensure that this new shoe would fully reflect the overall design of the 2016 Civic. The show has been developed using premium materials such as a quilted leather pattern on the insole and heel counter, sleek suede with metallic hints, a neoprene vamp that fits over the top of the driver’s foot, a suede shroud that fastens in place to cover the leaves, and articulated nodes that wrap around the ankles for additional support.

“Collaborating with JackThreads and Thrillist to develop an exclusive shoe for people who love driving and love the sporty new Honda Civic has been a great experience,” said Jarad Hall, Civic Senior Exterior Designer, Honda R&D Americas. “Our all-new Civic lineup is a real game changer in its segment when it comes to styling and fun to drive spirit, and we look forward to stepping into the footwear world with a premium limited edition shoe that showcases just how remarkable the Civic is, inside and out.”
