Salomon Releases The XT-EVO After KITH Debut

September 2, 2026

Perhaps it’s their work with New Balance and ASICS that takes up the most headlines, but quiet as kept, KITH is keenly aware of Salomon’s continually rising star. Bracketing a catalog that already includes work on the XT-Voyager 2, custom branded XT-4s, the XT-6, and the XT-Whisper, KITH and Salomon last made each other’s acquaintance with the XT-EVO, the French outdoors company enlisting Ronnie Fieg’s label to debut an all-new silhouette.

This newest branch on Salomon’s flagship XT line is quite literally built on its predecessors. The XT-6 platform is in tow for this fresh member, but it’s not the sole that’s the most noteworthy addition. Solidly constructed yet partially translucent “liquid rubber” synthetics form a wrap-around cage, creating a checkered grid towards the eyestay and a sharp, fluid series of “teeth” down the length of the toe.

Though the brand utilizes a “goes-with-everything” all-black in this set of debut colorways, the new construction’s upper/lower split takes center stage with a “Black/Fiery Red” and an “Alloy/Castlerock” that each knowingly accentuate that layout. The Salomon XT-EVO is available now via the Salomon webstore in all three colorways, retailing for $200 a piece.
