Editor's Notes: Some brands are made for one another – bread and butter, a match made in heaven. You know, Off-White and Nike, Yohji with adidas, New Balance for Aime Leon Dore. In the world of Gorpcore, a dream pairing for the ages is undoubtedly And Wander's ongoing relationship with Salomon.
The collaborations that work the best are the ones that make the most sense, the ones that already share connective tissue before merging their product lines, design languages, and ethos.
That's precisely what you get when And Wander connects with Salomon. With And Wander, you get a love of the outdoors, born from its founder's passion for hiking, offering up slick functional apparel lines such as its popular Pertex Shield Rain Jackets.
Salomon? High-performance footwear designed in the French Alps and rendered with the industry's best color palettes. Truly, a perfect match.

Every time the two come together, they fail to disappoint as they refit Salomon's flagship sneaker silhouettes with balanced palettes that are distinctly more grounded than the retro flair we've become accustomed to.
The same goes for their latest pairing, which is due to land in stores anytime now. On offer is the Odessey, rooted in deep earth tones of green and brown, resulting in a palette perfect for Fall/Winter.
On the contrast is an updated take on the XT-6, which borrows the orange tone of SS22's "Apricot Buff" colorway, remixing it with a strike of green and touches of silver across the upper.
