2025 marks an important milestone for END., the British retailer celebrating its 20th anniversary with a new drop. For the occasion, END. renews its collaboration with Salomon to create a jewel-like version of the XT-6, the iconic silhouette designed for extreme trail running.

First launched in 2013, the XT-6 stood out for its perfect combination of durability and contemporary style, becoming a must-have for sneaker and outdoor enthusiasts alike. The model, chosen to commemorate END.’s two-decade journey, is dressed in a color palette inspired by traditional anniversary symbols: emerald and platinum.

The END. x Salomon XT-6 ‘Emerald’ features an abrasion-resistant mesh and TPU base in a bright platinum shade, enriched with emerald green accents across the sole, tongue, and bar tack stitching on the eyelets. The midsole retains its iconic cushioned structure, while the co-branded insole showcases a print reminiscent of the deep, luminous texture of emerald. The END. logo stands out on a woven patch placed on the tongue, while the QuickLACE™ system ensures a secure and fast fit, emphasizing Salomon’s technical heritage.

For the launch, END. and Salomon ventured to the wild beauty of Giant’s Causeway in Northern Ireland, showcasing the sneaker against the natural contrast between the vibrant green grass and the iconic hexagonal formations of gray rock. An epic setting that perfectly embodies the spirit of the Platinum Emerald XT-6 model.

The END. x Salomon XT-6 ‘Emerald’ will be available starting tomorrow, March 28, in all END. stores and online via END. Launches—the perfect collaboration to celebrate 20 years of innovation, style, and sneaker culture.
