OAMC and Salomon Push the XT-QUEST Forward With Sleek ‘Black Silver’ Collab

The long-anticipated collaboration between Paris-based OAMC and Salomon arrives in 2026 with the XT-QUEST ‘Black Silver’ silhouette, a fusion of high-concept design and hardcore performance DNA.

This latest drop sees the outdoor pioneer’s technically orientated XT-QUEST shape reworked through OAMC’s distinctive ‘tough luxury’ lens, yielding a silhouette that’s as visually striking as it is functionally capable. Far from a simple re-colour, the ‘Black Silver’ update articulates a balance between avant-garde aesthetics and utilitarian grit, offering a hybrid footwear statement that feels equally at home on urban streets and rugged terrain.

A Closer Look at the OAMC x Salomon XT-QUEST ‘Black Silver’ (L49167100)...

At the heart of the collaboration sits the XT-QUEST’s unique architectural lineage, which marries elements drawn from Salomon’s trail-running and hiking heritage. The shoe combines the aggressive grip and traction characteristics of the XT-WINGS trail runner with the robust cushioning and stability of the QUEST 4D 3 hiking boot, resulting in an outsole and chassis built to cope with mixed-terrain demands.

OAMC’s influence pushes this technical foundation further, wrapping it in a deep matte black mesh upper layered with structural synthetic overlays and accented by metallic silver detailing that highlights the shoe’s complex construction without overwhelming it. The monochrome palette amplifies the silhouette’s textural interplay and underscores the collaboration’s industrial design language, while premium materials and an anatomical fit ensure that style doesn’t compromise substance.

As the ‘Black Silver’ release lands in mid-January, it marks another chapter in a growing partnership between OAMC and Salomon that blends Parisian tailoring sensibilities with rugged performance footwear. With the drop poised to attract both gorpcore devotees and fashion-forward sneaker collectors, interest is expected to be high, and stock limited once the pairs hit shelves.
