In a bold departure from today’s minimalist sneaker trends, Comme des Garçons and Salomon have unveiled the RX Marie-Jeanne Platform, a striking new take on the ballet sneaker silhouette.

Released as part of their ongoing collaboration, the model blends CDG’s avant-garde fashion vision with Salomon’s performance footwear expertise, resulting in a chunky, platform Mary Jane sneaker that stands in stark contrast to the slim designs dominating the market.

Search interest in "ballet sneakers" surged over 1300% on LYST in 2025, confirming the style’s explosive rise.

However, instead of following the slimline formula, this new release takes an elevated approach—literally. The platform sole, rugged outsole, and buckle-fastened design offer a hybrid of luxury streetwear and outdoor functionality.

Available in all-black and all-white, and priced at $280, the Salomon RX Marie-Jeanne Platform is more than a sneaker. It’s a statement piece.

Building on past CDG x Salomon collaborations, this release further cements their shared reputation for transforming technical footwear into high fashion.

As traditional balletcore aesthetics evolve, the CDG Salomon ballet sneaker signals a broader shift toward chunky designer sneakers, offering a compelling alternative to slim silhouettes.

This shoe is already drawing attention on Google Trends, YouTube fashion channels, and social media platforms like TikTok and Instagram.

Stay tuned as we cover this major release and its impact on both the sneaker community and the high fashion landscape.
