Michael Le Founded in 2011 by former Issey Miyake designers Keita Ikeuchi and Mihoko Mori, and wander has quickly become one of the most recognized names in outdoors gear, presenting apparel and accessories replete with an astonishing attention to detail. And this passion isn’t exclusive to their own mainline offerings; collaborative efforts, too, share a cohesive identity — especially so with their seasonal run of Salomons.
To close out their Autumn/Winter ’21 collection, the two have set their sights on the beloved XT-6. Like the technically advanced outerwear it accompanies, the silhouette leans towards a subdued palette, dressing much of its exterior in a black finish. The tab down the center, then, incorporates brighter hits of yellow, red, and blue, which effectively underline the emboldened “and wander” branding. An additional mark stamps the medial heel, though it visually blends into the background like the “Salomon” text opposite. Finally, the sole, while treaded in white, finishes strong along its foxing with two texturally distinct instances of cool tones.
Enjoy a detailed look at the collaboration here. They’re currently available at select retailers, with sizes selling out rather fast. Find them at a price tag of around $300 USD via the links below.
