Welcome, but if you are using java 8, you should try with `LocalDate`,`LocalDateTime`, `ZonedDateTime` :) – Viet Nov 23 '16 at 03:50

Date date = format.parse("2016-10-08T01:00:00-07:00");

should be

Date date = format.parse("2016-10-08T01:00:00-0700");

The time zone should not have a colon delimiting hours and minutes.

You can try SimpleDateFormat format = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ssXXX");
