In 1984, Trident International Trading Corporation launched a series of boat shoes under the Swatch Seasider label, and it immediately made an impact in the course of Philippine shoe manufacturing history. Based in Marikina City––the shoe capital of the Philippines—Swatch Seasider charted a course that took it to where it is today, undoubtedly one of the premier label for men’s casual footwear in the country. Under the leadership of its founders and designers, Trident International grew from a 5-man operation into a network of more than 100 skilled artisans, craftsmen, and patternmakers housed in two fully-equipped buildings and factories in Marikina City. Today, Trident International hand-crafts shoes daily under its banner label—Swatch Seasider. Using only the best materials, sourcing is done both nationally and worldwide. Every pair is handmade with strong attention to detail. Every design is made with careful thought. Today’s Filipino requires comfort and style as he treads about the urban jungle. Swatch Seasider aims to provide that—and a knowing confidence that when you have on a pair, you have on a guarantee of quality. From a single style of boat shoes 28 years ago, Swatch Seasider now carries four distinctive collections of men’s footwear. The Act!ve collection complements your athletic style with a selection of golf, bowling, and boating shoes. The Leisure collection takes you anywhere with its line of comfortable casuals. The Resort collection boasts of footwear you can play with in surf and turf. The Classic collection has a line of stylish footwear for the urban professionals.
