Ray BEAMS Unlocks Salomon's Sweet Tooth With the XT-Whisper “Cherry Cake Party”
The perfect sneaker confection.
Salomon and Ray BEAMS are back with another dessert-inspired hit, officially revealing their first fully-customized footwear collaboration: the XT-Whisper “Cherry Cake Party.” Following the hype of their previous sweet-themed releases, the duo has reimagined the technical runner into a piece of pure eye candy.
Dressed in a sugary “Ice Pink” colorway, the sneaker balances trail-ready functionality with a playful, hyper-feminine aesthetic. The design starts with a breathable light-pink mesh base, serving as the “frosting” for the pair. Overlaid across the upper are sweeping synthetic cage panels in rich cherry pink and deep crimson, creating a layered visual texture reminiscent of decadent cake decorations.
To keep the sweetness grounded, sharp black detailing accentuates the heel counter and ankle collar, anchored by a matte black sole underneath. The striking clash between glossy overlays, airy mesh and dark technical tooling gives the silhouette a dimensional look that merges gorpcore with streetwear.
Complete with Salomon’s signature technology, including a SensiFit upper that wraps around the foot for a secure, fit and the Agile Chassis System that provides underfoot stability and impact absorption on all terrains, this shoe is perfect for your next urban hike, outdoor adventure or weekend stroll.
The Salomon x Ray BEAMS XT-Whisper “Cherry Cake Party” will be available to purchase starting October 2 on the BEAMS website.
