# Vibrant Collaborative Technical Apparel One Block Down and Salomon Join Forces on a Capsule By Amy Duong | Published 2022-01-09 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/one-block-down References: [hypebeast](https://hypebeast.com/2022/1/salomon-advanced-one-block-down-xt-6-xt-4-editorial) Salomon and One Block Down work in collaboration with content creators all across Europe to showcase new colorways of the Salomon XT-4 and the XT-6 sneakers throughout different European environments. First off, working with @street_epicentro in Rome, Italy, One Block Down was taken throughout a tour of the city center by the seaside. This was followed by French photographer and video maker @escalopeviandehache in the city of Valence to see the city's snow and forest in the mountains, highlighting the XT-6. The team then went north to Munich to meet with Instagram creator @thv4gsb to spotlight the Xt-4 in different forest spaces. The final stop was Berlin, Germany where the team worked with @artsyblumkohl in the urban environment.
