Salomon introduces its new XT-PATHWAY sneaker model which is made for Japanese retailer BEAMS, making it the latest silhouette to join the XT SERIES. It joins other models such as the XT-4, the XT-6, XT-QUEST, and more. The XT-PATHWAY sneaker is made specially for BEAMS and it comes in two colorway palettes.
Both of the options embody a stealthy design language kicking off with an all-black option that is accented with bright pops of orange for a contrasting touch. The second colorway is a camouflage base foundation that is covered entirely in GORE-TEX film and prepares for various terrains and weather conditions. The XT-PATHWAY shoes are rounded out with the classic Sensifit and Quicklace technology.
