Salomon x RANRA Cross Pro Sneaker in Green
RANRA has reworked Salomon’s Cross Pro model, stripping back conventional production processes to reimagine the shoe with an emphasis on natural material choices and artisanal plant dyeing processes.
Natural rubber, cork and leather are combined with water repellent Ventile cotton canvas to retain the shoe’s high level performance. While the use of glues and adhesives commonly found within performance footwear are removed in favour of construction methods more commonly associated with traditional shoemaking.
The canvas for the shoe’s upper is dyed using Icelandic Elftingar (Equisetum), harvested by hand at Urriðavatn, Iceland. Each plant was hand picked and prepared through traditional processes. The fabric was then hand dyed by the design team in small batches to achieve unique variations in shade and texture, a distinct feature of the natural dye process.
