Editor's Notes: Anybody keen on getting their fix of adventure in the UK during the current season will be aware of the high probability of spring showers. You may well wake to the sun high in the sky, but you'll likely be met by rain at intervals throughout the day.
Should you find yourself traversing trails and woodland during the predictably unpredictable weather of a British spring, you'll likely keep a shell jacket at the ready. Even more important, however, is the right footwear for the occasion.
If your iPhone weather app has been pinging off alerts concerning heavy downpours, you'll probably be lacing up a pair of boots or slipping into a set of GORE-TEX-equipped Salomons. On a warmer day where you're expecting a light sprinkling or two, however, the Gramicci x Salomon TECHSONIC is a solid choice.
Two key players in the Gorpcore game, Gramicci and Salomon, set their sights on the allure of the outdoors; specifically when the sun creeps its head through Spring/Summer.
Pieced together in two colorways – "Rubber/Dark Sapphire/Black" and "Mayfly/Black/Monument" – the TECHSONIC is a slip-on mule designed to be water-ready and hard-wearing.
Ensuring the silhouette is tactile, a collapsible heel provides the option to transform these from sandal to slip-on and vice-versa, resulting in the perfect rotational piece for British weather systems.
