Salomon x Pas Normal Studios GRVL Concept: SS26 Drop

Salomon x Pas Normal Studios GRVL Concept: SS26 Drop

By SneakersBook Team

The Salomon x Pas Normal Studios GRVL Concept (LI9725) launched Tuesday, May 27, 2026 at $300 through pasnormalstudios.com and salomon.com. The shoe is built for hybrid gravel running, a discipline neither brand had a dedicated silhouette for, and it pairs PEBA-based supercritical foam with dual full-length carbon blades. Pas Normal Studios is capping orders at one pair per customer.

What you need to know

  • Style code: LI9725
  • Retail price: $300
  • Release date: Tuesday, May 27, 2026

Where to cop

Pas Normal Studios and Salomon's direct sites are the only consistent stockists for the full size run. PNS enforces a hard one-pair-per-customer limit, so collectors hunting both colorways need to split orders across pasnormalstudios.com and salomon.com. Select run specialty doors and a small handful of European outdoor retailers received allocations, but those have largely sold through. Restocks across the SS26 season are expected; sign up for both sites' email alerts if your size is gone.

What we know about the design

The GRVL Concept is a gravel-running super shoe, a category neither brand had built for before. Pas Normal Studios brought tyre-geometry thinking from the cycling side: the 1.5mm lug pattern is shallow enough to keep rolling resistance low on asphalt but cut for grip on loose surface. Salomon contributed the chassis, a PEBA-based supercritical foam midsole paired with dual full-length carbon blades that delivers race-day return on hard road and stays stable on dirt and gravel. A fitted knit collar blocks debris, and a quick-lacing system keeps transitions fast. The launch colorways lean earthy: Dark Earth/Nine Iron/Sweet Pea reads warm and dusty, while T.K.O. Moss Green plays as the tonal alternative. T3 framed it as "the gravel-running super shoe Nike ACG wishes it had," which is the right read on category positioning.
