Salomon and The Broken Arm are releasing the Savát, a brand-new silhouette, on June 16, 2026, in two colorways, Dark Olive and Cosmic Sky, at $170 each. This is not a rework of an existing Salomon model. It is a completely original shoe, built from the ground up through one of the more consistent retailer-brand partnerships in contemporary sneaker culture.
Salomon has its roots in the French Alps, where the company began as an outdoor equipment maker before expanding into performance footwear. Over the years, the brand built a reputation for technical construction, grippy outsoles, and trail-ready durability. That heritage carried into sneaker culture gradually, as Salomon silhouettes started appearing on urban feet alongside strictly outdoor ones. The brand became a reference point for buyers who wanted function built into a low-profile, wearable package.
The Savát reflects that sensibility while stripping things down further than most Salomon releases. The upper is cut from a single piece of suede with minimal stitching and a tongueless construction that nods to rustic footwear traditions. A rubberized toe cap adds protection, and the thick sole unit runs heavy-duty lugs for grip on varied terrain. Both colorways carry contrasting embroidery stitching along the shoe’s sidewall. Dark Olive is the earthier option, while Cosmic Sky brings a softer purple tone. The construction is intentional throughout, with nothing added that does not serve the shoe’s pared-down outdoor-casual purpose.
The Broken Arm opened in Paris in 2012 and built its reputation as a discerning fashion retailer with a careful eye for what it stocks and who it works with. The boutique made a mark in sneaker culture in 2017 when it was one of the first retail stops for Virgil Abloh’s “The Ten” Nike collaboration, a moment that signaled how seriously the store was being taken by major brands and collectors alike. The retailer began working with Salomon in 2015 and has collaborated with the brand nearly every year since, with Salomon giving The Broken Arm considerable creative latitude on each project.
The Savát is the most ambitious result of that decade-long relationship. Rather than putting a new colorway on an existing Salomon model, The Broken Arm pushed the partnership into new territory by introducing an entirely original silhouette. That kind of creative freedom is unusual in collaborative sneaker releases, and it shows in how different the Savát looks from anything else in Salomon’s catalog.
The Salomon Savát releases June 16, 2026, in Dark Olive and Cosmic Sky, both priced at $170, through The Broken Arm. If this release has you interested in what else the two partners have produced together, it is worth looking back at earlier Salomon collaborations from The Broken Arm to see how the relationship got here.
