At its core, the Quest Low 2 represents GR10K's studied approach to recontextualization. The Italian label has built its reputation on extracting military and workwear elements from their original context, examining them through a contemporary filter, and rebuilding them with technical precision. This latest collaboration with Salomon demonstrates that philosophy in its purest form.
The transformation begins with Salomon's military-grade boots – not as inspiration, but as raw material. By physically deconstructing these high-ankle silhouettes, GR10K creates something entirely new while preserving the original's technical DNA. This isn't merely a design exercise; it's architectural reconstruction at the footwear level.
