Kilian Jornet will leave Salomon after 18 years of collaboration

« I remember it like it was yesterday: in the summer of 2003, a friend of a friend gave me a few pairs of trail running shoes. This guy was the marketing director of Salomon Spain. From that day on, Salomon became not only a sponsor, but also a life partner, and the Salomon team – from marketing to product developers – came into my family.

Together, we saw big: victories in trail and skimo races, ascent of high mountains. And I was able to make dreams come true that I didn’t even believe possible, and this in large part thanks to this team. I cannot express all the gratitude I have towards Solomon for having accompanied me for more than half of my life.

It has been an amazing journey and it will end at the end of 2021, as it is time for me to embark on a new project and start my own business, which I will tell you about very soon.

Thanks to everyone at Salomon. Thanks to the product developers who brought my crazy equipment ideas to life. Thank you to all the sports marketing managers who supported my projects, and to all who brought them to life with images and content. A big thank you to Joan, Pau, Gino, Greg, JYC, Félix, Serge, Patrick, Christelle, Jérémie, Laurent, Joseph, Jean-Marc, Bruno and many more.

Impossible to tell in a single post what was the trip of a lifetime, so we put together a series of memories to discover in the coming days, to look back on these 15 years. Thank you Solomon! »
