Ferxxo green turns Salomon’s XT-4 OG into a louder, sharper sequel, and the first 100 pairs only made the wider drop feel hotter.

Ferxxo green is doing the heavy lifting here. The XT-4 OG Ferxxocalipsis takes Salomon’s hard-edged trail silhouette and drags it into Feid’s neon world with bright green tones, album-art graphics, and the kind of visual punch that makes the shoe feel less like a colorway and more like a character study.

The demand was already there before the raffle opened. Salomon says the shoe started as a Friends and Family pair made for Feid’s inner circle, with only 100 pairs in existence before this wider release. That kind of origin story matters because it explains why this drop lands with actual heat instead of the usual artist-collab shrug. Feid, born Salomón Villada Hoyos, has been a longtime Salomon wearer, and this is his second sneaker with the brand. It is also his first release as both global ambassador and creative partner, which gives the pair a little more weight than a simple logo swap.

The hardware still reads Salomon first. The XT-4 OG’s Agile Chassis Skeleton is back for stability and cushioning, so the collaboration keeps the performance backbone intact instead of sanding it down into a lifestyle husk. The shoe is listed under style code L47822500 and carries a $200 price tag, which puts it right in the zone for premium performance footwear, not fashion-week fantasy pricing. Salomon’s launch calendar lists the pair for May 7, while the U.S. and Canada raffle runs from May 4 through May 7, winners are notified May 8, and the release begins May 9. The staggered timing says everything: this is a controlled rollout, not a wide-open flood. Salomon is also positioning it as a limited North America and Latin America release.

The reference points are doing some of the storytelling too. Salomon ties the design to Feid’s Ferxxocalipsis album artwork and to his 2024 Latin Grammy appearance, where he wore the shoe onstage. That matters because it shows the collaboration living in Feid’s actual visual language, not just borrowing it for a campaign image. It also follows the XT-Pathway 2 Ferxxo, Salomon’s first official Feid shoe, which sold out and set the stage for this sequel.

Style it like a real Salomon, not a trend-board prop. Keep the pants cropped or slightly tapered, let the technical sole breathe, and pair the neon hits with washed black, grey nylon, or deep olive so the green reads intentional instead of costume-y. That is where Salomon keeps winning: these shoes still perform like gear, but they hit like culture.
