L'Art de L'Automobile x Salomon ACS Pro Sneaker

Arthur Kar's L'Art de L'Automobile and Salomon have teamed up again for a new collection inspired by car culture and running. The collaboration features new versions of two popular Salomon models, the S/Lab Phantasm 3 and the ACS Pro.

The design focuses on aerodynamics, comparing the speed of Formula 1 cars to marathon runners. The S/Lab Phantasm 3 is a racing shoe with a carbon plate and a special outer layer that improves airflow by 30%. The ACS Pro is a lifestyle update of a 2005 trail shoe, featuring colors that mimic airflow and a street racing style.

Both shoes include the number "42" to represent the marathon distance and honor the Paris Marathon. The collection launches on April 8 via L'Art de L'Automobile, followed by a release in Paris on April 11, and a global launch on April 14 with pricing expected to be €225 EUR to €300 EUR.
