Stone is a key component of Salomon’s creative spaces. It is also a necessary element of urban architecture and indispensable in natural landscapes, two settings in which Salomon expresses itself audaciously.
Salomon and the Speedcross 3 act as go-betweens in a natural process that, with human help, turns a part of the starting environment into an intelligent creation. A mode of self-expression whose origin is functionality.
The Salomon Speedcross 3’s two faces represent the essence of stone in its most natural context, as well as how man participates in the city. Conceived for mountain performance, its design was disrupted by the extreme pursuit of functionality, and it became a symbol of self-expression for those seeking unconventional styles.
Its unexpected rise to fashion was fueled by the functional elements that made it a favorite among mountaineers. The aggressive, uncompromising sole and striking color blocks were reinterpreted as a statement of uniqueness.
The Salomon Speedcross 3 “Sulphur”, which debuted in 2011, returns in the same colors that sparked its emergence in a variety of contexts, and it continues to unite athletic performance and personal expression.
