Combining technical excellence and cultural connection often yields unparalleled masterpieces in the sneaker realm. Jah Jah, the brainchild of Daquisiline Gomis and Coralie Jouhier, has already made its mark with past collaborations, beautifully intertwining its West African heritage with contemporary designs. Their budding partnership with Salomon promises yet another rendition that fuses Jah Jah's distinct ethos with Salomon's commitment to performance, this time on the ACS Pro.
Jah Jah's take on the Salomon ACS Pro takes on a rich chocolate brown shade across its upper. A medley of materials - mesh, TPU, canvas, and rubberized sections - is bathed in this dominant hue. Punctuating this base are green, red, and yellow splashes, resonating with the colors of Jah Jah's branding, prominently displayed on the sneaker's tongue. The collaborative spirit of this release is further embodied by the joint branding of Jah Jah and Salomon found on the pull tab and the insole. To finish, the ACS Pro's signature midsole and outsole make their presence felt in predominantly black shades, complemented by hints of brown on the midsole's heel and a striking red dash at the center of the outsole.
The Jah Jah x Salomon ACS Pro will release September 26 exclusively through Jah Jah Studio, followed by a wider release on September 28 via Salomon online. Available in men’s sizing, the retail price is set at $230.
