Salomon and GR10K are back with a bold new collab: the Quest Low 2. This sneaker mixes military looks with everyday practicality, giving you the best combo of toughness and style – whether you’re out in the wild or just cruising around the city.

Inspired by the power of collective effort, the campaign for this release was shot in the heart of Tuscany, Italy, where a team engaged in an intense tug of war, testing the shoes’ grip and durability in the mud.

A Closer Look at the GR10K x Salomon Quest Low 2 ‘Ponderosa Pine’…

The Quest Low 2 sneaker take cues from Salomon’s military-grade footwear, but with a twist. By cutting down the ankle of their original high-top boots, Salomon and GR10K have created a sneaker that is as functional as it is stylish, suited for any environment.

This year’s colourway moves away from the typical black and sand tones of military-inspired designs, opting for deeper, more earthy shades that evoke the spirit of nature. The shoes are not just built to perform – they’re a visual testament to resilience and endurance, with a design that echoes the force of Scottish chants and the solidarity of collective effort.

The collaboration also brings a repurposed backpack, designed for practicality and durability in rugged landscapes. The bag’s unique design features digital renderings of children playing traditional games, emphasizing the idea of adaptability and resilience. This partnership reflects GR10K’s vision of repurposing tactical and workwear concepts, pushing them into new cultural contexts and creating a powerful fashion statement.

Mark your calendars – these sneakers are dropping on 22ND JANUARY 2025. Whether you’re navigating rocky terrains or urban streets, the GR10K x Salomon Quest Low 2 ‘Ponderosa Pine’ is built to carry you through it all.

GR10K is a spin-off of a military and workwear uniform factory, drawing on its expertise, technology, and aesthetic references to create something entirely new. It serves as a fashion proxy, exploring how fabrics and workwear concepts can be repurposed in innovative ways. What sets GR10K apart is its anti-identitary approach – it doesn’t have a fixed identity. Instead, it functions as a collaborative group that plays with the boundaries of corporate and industrial creativity, challenging traditional notions of individuality and design.
