Salomon’s XT-6 has cemented itself as a staple sneaker across multiple style categories, including streetwear, Gorpcore, and traditional outdoor wear.

The foundational trail model is already enduringly popular, but looks even better in its newest version, part of Salomon’s latest release: the highly anticipated “Forms” XT-Icons capsule, which reimagines four of the brand’s core styles in a cool palette of icy, pale blues and creams.

The XT-6, accompanied by the XT-4 OG, XT-Whisper and XT-Pathway 2, all get a stylistic rework as part of the new sneaker pack.

The XT-6’s lightweight, streamlined upper features a light grey, synthetic base mesh with cream and pearl blue overlays providing sleek structure.

Underfoot, the EVA cushioning is designed with varying layers of deep blue, tan and ivory, adding depth and dimension to the supportive midsole. The rugged outsole and Quicklace system are outfitted in contrasting black.

The Forms XT-Icons Collection is available now on Salomon’s website, with the starring XT-6 in Pearl Blue / Grisaille / Vanilla Ice retailing for $185.

Given the popularity of Salomon and these particular models, I expect this drop to sell out fast.
