Kar L’Art de L’Automobile works in collaboration with [Salomon](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/porsche-911-gt1) to deliver a new iteration of the [ACS Pro Advanced sneaker](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/acs-og1) model for the season. Kar L’Art de L’Automobile is often known for creating accessories and streetwear designs that are inspired by racing and classic luxury cars.

This time around, the shoe is designed with the inspiration of colors that are seen on a traffic light, resulting in a [vibrant look](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/xtwhisper). It fuses all of the tones together across the lifestyle look, detailing the cafes, the midsoles and the mudguard in a bright green hue to represent 'go.' Red is applied to the mesh underlays for a bright and breathable look, and finally yellow makes its way onto the overlays.
