India’s design and sneaker communities are getting one last shot at one of the year’s most talked-about collaborations. Consumer technology brand CMF by Nothing and homegrown sneaker label Gully Labs have announced the final drop of the CMF x Gully Labs Xoloni Orange sneaker, set to take place exclusively at the Nothing Store in Bengaluru on May 30 at 7 PM IST.
The limited-edition sneaker collaboration first grabbed attention through the #DesignCMFKicks challenge, an initiative that invited creators across India to redesign Gully Labs’ GL001 silhouette using the colours, textures and industrial design language of the CMF Phone 2 Pro. What followed was a nationwide wave of creativity, with over 1,000 entries submitted from aspiring designers and sneaker enthusiasts.

The winning concept came from Dhreetimaan Sarmah from Dhemaji, Assam, whose design was eventually transformed into a production-ready sneaker after nearly nine months of collaboration between CMF and Gully Labs.
More than just another sneaker collaboration, the Xoloni Orange project reflects a growing shift toward community-driven design in India’s lifestyle and tech space. Instead of developing the product internally, both brands opened the process to creators and allowed the community to shape the final outcome.
To make the final drop even more special, every successful purchase will also include an authentic Royal Challengers Bengaluru jersey signed by players, celebrating Nothing’s association as the title sponsor of RCB during the 2026 T20 season.
The drop will take place at the Nothing Store located on 100 Feet Road, Indiranagar, Bengaluru, with limited quantities available on a first-come, first-served basis. With hype around the collaboration already high, the final release is expected to draw sneakerheads, design enthusiasts and Nothing fans alike.
