Nobody is immune to the allure of good design. Not even skiers, though some will tell you they don't care about what their skis look like. "It's all about the feel," they'll say—and then you'll catch them drooling over the annual gear guides when they come out. Ski companies know this and that's why they put out new designs every year even when the ski beneath doesn't change beyond a minor tweak or two.
In this way, ski releases are like shoe drops, and Salomon is getting a head start on next year's season by revealing the 2025/26 QST ski collection, now sporting some rather eye-catching topsheets by designer Victor Brousseaud—in addition to some noteworthy adjustments under the hood, too.
