Salomon's XT-6 was a leading crusader in the style campaign that took trail sneakers from plain athletic wear to weighty style staple. Figuratively, of course.

So, when you throw the durability of GORE-TEX into the mix, the results are dapperly robust and shockingly urban.

Prime example? Salomon's XT-6 GTX " Concrete Jungle" sneaker. With the help of Tokyo-based sneaker retailer atmos, Salomon's XT-6 just got a hardy elevation — GORE-TEX style.

The Salomon XT-6 GTX has the waterproof durability of GORE-TEX, along with a lug-shaped outsole and mesh upper.

More or less, the Salomon XT-6 GTX looks the same as any other XT-6 model, bungee-lace charm and all.

But where this trail sneaker stands out is its colorway. The Salomon XT-6 GTX has a gradient gray upper that's sprinkled with black specks designed to resemble the streets of Tokyo.

News of Salomon's XT-6 GTX first came out in August, so the anticipation for this hike-happy shoe has been brewing for a cool little minute. Have no fear, though, the pavement-inspired sneaker will be available on December 7 on the atmos website.

So real-deal hikers or those who just want to jack their swag (guilty!) can let out a collective sigh of release because this beautifully gloomy sneaker will be available to fortify our winter wardrobes soon enough. Phew!
