The Salomon x Carhartt WIP X-ALP LTR isn't a sneaker that needs to shout to get noticed—it does it in a subtle, functional way. The silhouette brings Salomon's outdoor DNA to urban streets while remaining uncompromisingly authentic. Robust suede meets technical mesh inserts, sturdy overlays, and a striking sole that immediately shows that this is not just about looks, but about performance. The shoe looks like it was catapulted straight from the Alps onto the asphalt – made for people who know the grind, whether on trails or between concrete walls.

And that's exactly what gives it that understated cool factor that's so in demand on the scene right now.
