Italian retailer Slam Jam is trekking back up to the French Alps for another collaboration with Salomon, this time turning its attention to the heavy-duty XA PRO 3D trail runner.
Slam Jam and Salomon have come together on a number of occasions in recent years, including some of the dopest skiing and snowboarding collabs you can find. This sneaker continues the brand’s past work on models like the XT-4 and XT-Quest 1, once again delivering subtle, tasteful hardware tweaks. The base features a more open mesh fabric than usual, complemented by a new heel pull tab and updated eyelet positioning over the toe box. The mostly all-black colorway is standard, but silver underlays add a welcome pop. Co-branding is kept pretty quiet, anchored by Slam Jam logos on the tongue, spine, and insoles.
The gallery below also shows a GORE-TEX tag affixed to the lateral side of the heel, promising a high standard of waterproofing and durability. OrthoLite insoles provide comfort, and a contaGRIP outsole ensures you’re ready for any terrain.
The Slam Jam x Salomon XA PRO 3D doesn’t have a concrete release date yet, but that should change in the near future. General release colorways retail for $150, although this collab might fetch a slightly higher MSRP. See detailed pics below and stay tuned for more info.
