Salomon and A-Cold-Wall* have reunited for the ACS PRO, a refined study in contrast that captures Salomon through the lens of post-industrial Britain, a place where heritage and innovation sit side by side.

The campaign features two artists, Shabaka Hutchings and Reek0, moving through Central London as their paths gradually converge. Shabaka is one of the UK’s most influential contemporary musicians, known for bringing together jazz, electronic, and diasporic traditions into a singular language. His recent focus on flute studies, shaped by traditions from Japan and the Americas, reflects a practice rooted in curiosity and constant evolution. Alongside him, Tottenham-born Reek0, a member of the Brighter Days collective, brings a perspective shaped by personal storytelling. His intricate lyricism balances raw honesty with imagination, representing a new generation of voices emerging from London. Together, they embody the idea that different worlds can find common ground through creativity.

The ACS PRO is redefined through Samuel Ross’s vision. Every panel and seam is exposed to celebrate the architecture of the design. Subtle traces of wear hint at a lived-in journey. Playing with deconstructed forms and industrial textures, the silhouette merges functionality with artistry. A floating cage structure combines with an asymmetrical lacing system, while distressed eyelets, a grain-textured midsole, and geometric detailing reinforce the post-industrial aesthetic. Built with Matryx Kevlar mesh and a robust upper structure, the shoe delivers durability and lightweight support.
