More platform Salomons, courtesy of COMME des GARÇONS? Don’t mind if we do.

The Japanese label debuted its Fall/Winter 2023 womenswear collection at Paris Fashion, where dramatic bulbous gowns and hairstyles made of ripper paper and pipe cleaners mingled on the runway.

Amongst the parade of over-the-top displays (classic CdG), COMME des GARÇONS also teased what looks like another linkup with Salomon.

In between rather-calm heels, I noticed flashes of Salomon branding stamped on that familiar platform silhouette, as showcased  on the partnership’s past collabs.

The thick-soled Salomon shoe surfaced again in its tonal black and white iterations. However, unlike the collabs revealed in previous seasons, the latest bears no laces.

Per a zoom-in, the Salomon shoe incorporates a sort of ribbed knit material on the upper, possibly for a more secure fit (given the previous bungee and traditional lace systems are gone).

Side views of the supposed CdG x Salomon shoe also reveal a pull tab on the heel, reiterating the model’s new slip-on attitude.

It’s unknown if these are another official collab (we’re still hoping for the SS23 pairs) or if these Salomons will even see the light of day.

But patience, thicc shoe lovers. Even with CdG’s quiet mystique, I suspect we’ll have answers to our burning Salomon questions soon (basically, keep an eye out for Dover Street Market).
