Salomon works in collaboration with Canadian running label Ciele Athletics on a new collection of running shoes to add to its Spring 2022 roster. The shoes that are set to join include new reworks of the Pulsar Trail Pro and Phantasm road sneaker model that are updated with animal patterns and bright hues.
The Pulsar Trail Pro is marked with zebra prints that are fused with bright hues in place of the usual earthy tones. These are complemented by technical details including the brand's Energy Surge foam along with extra midsole and stability. The Phantasm running shoe is detailed with another animal print with cheetah patterns in a Black Rock that is designed with Molten Red hues.
