The two forces grow their ongoing partnership and the latest silhouette is adorned with co-branded accents and described by Salomon as "a modern clog." The shoes are a unique approach to an overshoe, which was initially crafted for cross-country skiing purposes but often used by vineyard workers as a form of protection and to keep warm. It is packaged in a custom box made to celebrate the vineyard workers who are common wearers of the shoe. The laceless silhouette is made from a recycled mesh material for a sustainable and breathable feel. It is supported by additional suede panels at the toe and heel -- all of this rests on top of the [Contagrip](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/salomon-x-ray-beams) outsole.
