Laceless Collaborative Technical Sneakers

A-COLD-WALL* and Salomon Join Forces for the SS25 Season

A-COLD-WALL* and Salomon work in collaboration just as the fashion imprint is now led by the creative management of William Slocombe and Liam Hassimi. The seasonal range was showcased through a short film which displayed the looks with energetic music and functional form. The shoe that is created between the two has a laceless structure that appears to be worn-in and splattered with white paint along the bottom.

"The inaugural collection of the company's new phase draws inspiration from Britain's sonic culture – in particular, the practice of illicit radio broadcasting. Informed by a process of research into the spatial and subcultural dimensions of the phenomenon, the collection discusses ideas of ephemerality and functionality, anonymity and audacity."
