Compared to the eye-catching neon greens and collab colorways that have recently populated Salomon's XT-4 OG lineup, this "Pearl Blue/Grisaille/Vanilla Ice" release feels deliberately restrained. Pearl blue, rock gray, and vanilla white layer together without any single tone trying to steal the spotlight—the overall vibe leans toward an everyday trail shoe rather than a limited-edition piece that needs hype to carry it.

The upper uses a tightly woven mud-guard mesh, designed to keep sand and debris from working their way between the insole and the foot—standard fare for a Salomon silhouette built around outdoor performance. The brand's signature SensiFit system runs from the midsole up through the lacing zone, wrapping the foot for a locked-in fit, while the Quicklace system lets you pull on and off with one hand, skipping the whole traditional lace-tying process.

The midsole features Salomon's full-length Agile Chassis System (ACS), the brand's go-to setup for delivering stability and cushioning across varied terrain, while the outsole uses Contragrip rubber for traction. A bit of speckled detailing dots the upper as a visual accent, echoing the shoe's understated-but-not-plain approach.

No release date or pricing information has been shared for this "Pearl Blue/Grisaille/Vanilla Ice" colorway yet. Stay tuned to Salomon's official channels for further updates.
