Carhartt WIP and Salomon reunite on familiar ground, where utilitarian thinking meets technical precision. The X-ALP silhouette becomes the canvas for this shared mindset, rooted in workwear codes and mountain-ready performance. It’s a collaboration that feels purpose-built, stripping things back to function while letting material choice do the talking:
The upper comes dressed in near-black mixed media, blending stacked leather panels, rugged synthetics, a rubber mudguard, and Salomon’s signature wrap-around detailing. Duck camo hits on the collar, tongue, and insoles nod to Carhartt WIP’s visual language, while metal eyelets, a reinforced toe cap, and co-branded pull tabs underline its no-nonsense construction. Underfoot, Salomon’s Contagrip outsole delivers dependable traction, grounding the X-ALP firmly in performance territory with utility always front and center.
The Carhartt WIP x Salomon X-Alp releases at BSTN on Thursday, December 18th. Pick up your pair via the button below!
