BEAMS Remixes Salomon's XT-Quest GTX in All Black, Now Available to NYC Shoppers

Japanese retailer BEAMS has reworked Salomon's XT-Quest trail shoe. The result, the XT-Quest GTX BEAMS, is a unisex model in Salomon's Intersections line, listed at $240 on the brand's US site.

The headline detail is a set of buckles borrowed from ski boots. BEAMS says it blended Salomon's outdoor DNA with its own fashion sensibility to show the beauty of functional design. The shoe comes in a single colorway, black on black on black, which keeps it easy to wear around the city.

Underneath, the performance specs carry over from the original. The upper combines waterproof GORE-TEX with premium ripstop, and the quickLACE system tightens with a single pull. The outsole uses Mud contaGRIP, with deep, sharp lugs meant for loose, soft and uneven ground. advancedCHASSIS adds stability and sensiFIT provides a secure hold. The shoe has a 12 mm drop and weighs 1 lb 3 oz per unit.

Salomon describes the collection as mountain tech reimagined for the city. For New Yorkers, that points to a waterproof, grippy shoe that suits wet commutes and weekend trail outings alike.

The shoe is available on Salomon's website and through retail stores, with a store locator on the product page. Salomon lists free returns and exchanges by mail within 45 days of delivery, and free ground shipping for S/PLUS members. It launches November 12, 2026.
