Reggaeton star Feid and Salomon are teaming up for the third time, and this Feid Salomon project is bigger than a colorway: it introduces an all-new silhouette, the ACS NEXXT, in a black-and-green edition dubbed the Green Star. The pair carries a price tag of one hundred fifty dollars and goes on sale worldwide on Saturday, October 10, 2026, after a Queens pop-up that ran from October 2 to October 4 — and if you missed that window, a second online raffle is open right now through Thursday, October 8, according to Sneaker Bar Detroit.
The design of this Feid Salomon release keeps things dark up top and loud underneath. A black mesh upper with layered panels sits beneath a protective cage, with small hits of Feid's signature green around the branding and iridescent chrome details adding contrast, as reported by Sneaker Bar Detroit. The artist leaves a personal touch on the woven tongue label, which carries his hand-drawn signature. Most of the color is saved for the bottom: the outsole uses a green cow-print pattern across its full length, a nod to the visual identity Feid has carried through his music and creative projects.
Raffle windows and the road to October 10
The rollout is a three-act affair. First came the Queens activation, which ran Friday, October 2 through Sunday, October 4. Entry to that event was handled through an online raffle that closed Thursday, October 1 at noon Eastern, with winners purchasing the pair online and picking it up in person at the pop-up, as reported by Hypebeast. For Feid Salomon fans in New York, that ship has sailed — but the rest of the country gets another shot this week.
The second act of the Feid Salomon rollout is a separate Salomon-run online raffle open from Monday, October 5 through Thursday, October 8. Salomon's official product page describes the release as "all about unleashing Feid's personality," and notes that raffle entries are pre-authorized today but only charged if selected — so entering costs nothing unless you win. The final act is the global launch on Saturday, October 10, via Salomon and select retailers. If the pattern of the last two drops holds, the retail stock will not sit long.
A partnership that keeps selling out
What makes this Feid Salomon chapter different is the canvas. The first two Feid Salomon collaborations were reworkings of existing trail shoes: the XT-Pathway 2 "FXXOMOR" from October 2025 and the XT-4 OG "Ferxxocalipsis," which began life as a 100-pair friends-and-family run in 2026 before getting a public release in May. This time, the Colombian artist gets a brand-new silhouette built specifically around the partnership. The debut model carries familiar DNA from Salomon's ACS franchise, including its Agile Chassis System and caged construction, but the reinterpretation is aimed squarely at a lifestyle audience.
The arc of the Feid Salomon partnership says a lot about how trail shoes conquered street style. Feid's deal made him Salomon's first full-fledged musical-artist partner as a global ambassador for the brand's Sportstyle line, and his earlier collabs sold out worldwide — a striking outcome for an alpine equipment label. The broader wave has been building for years: as GenZ NewZ recently explored, Kith and On Running keep turning runners into streetwear, and technical hiking sneakers have become fashion objects precisely because they still look like equipment. As stupidDOPE put it in its analysis of the new pair, "the culture changed around the shoes."
There is a catch, and it is the same one that shadows every hyped release: the aftermarket. Previous pairs in this Feid Salomon partnership have traded on resale sites for well above their original retail prices, with some listings asking more than one and a half times what the shoes cost at drop. That is why the raffle windows matter more than the launch-day scramble — they are the only shot at paying retail, and the second window is open now.
The Feid Salomon partnership has turned a trail-running brand into one of the most talked-about names in sneaker culture, and the Green Star may be the boldest statement of that takeover yet. For more drops, collabs, and sneaker-culture analysis, follow the streetwear beat.
