Marathon Des Sables Inspires END. x Salomon XT-Wings 2 Collab

END. and Salomon are teaming up for the first time with a collab inspired by one of the most challenging traditions in the world. The upcoming END. x Salomon XT-Wings 2 “Sirocco” is inspired by the Marathon Des Sables, a six-day, 251 km ultramarathon that stretches the distance of six regular marathons.

The “Sirocco” colorway, named after the harsh winds that originate in the ecoregion where the challenge takes place, gets a sandy makeover on the upper. A tonal, breathable mesh upper, a specialist chassis system and grip technology ensure optimal comfort and security along with Salomon’s signature toggle fastening engineered to take on the Marathon that the collab draws inspiration from.

The upcoming END. x Salomon XT-Wings 2 “Sirocco” falls in line with the 2022 Footwear Trend Predictions story, curated by SoleSavy with the help of industry figures. Not only are we getting more collaborations, but retailers and creatives are getting technical with the help of Salomon.

The END. x Salomon XT-Wings 2 “Sirocco” releases on February 5 for $160 on END., which currently has a raffle open for the collab. A wider release date has not been announced.

Stay tuned to SoleSavy for more sneaker-related news from your favorite retailers and brands, including END. and Salomon.

Sole Savy is unreal! With a busy schedule it’s hard to keep up on shoes, and the group keeps me up to date on releases, tips on how to manually cop, and a marketplace with killer deals from fellow like minded collectors. It’s changed the sneaker game for me!

@SoleSavy is the truth. They've helped me cop kicks I never would've imagined getting at retail. Members always willing to assist on drops too. And most of all, a REAL community of REAL sneakerheads. These guys should be the gold standard for sneaker communities! #LifetimeMember

My membership paid for itself three fold by being solely responsible for my union 4’s, mesh sacai waffles, sacai blazers, court purple aj1s, glow in the dark yeezy 350s, travis scott lows (which I traded to get desert ore ow’s), air max 1 londons, bc3’s for way under retail etc.

Can't say enough about SS. The stellar help with copping shoes is a given but it's the community that makes it extra special. Hands down one of the best decisions I made as a wannabe sneakerhead.

The community of sneakerheads and resources available to help manually cop are great and really will help you get more Ws. The Zoom calls for hyped drops like Union Jordan 4 only adds to the camaraderie while providing real time instruction
