Keep Taking L’s on Aimé Leon Dore’s New Balances? Don’t panic, as the duo have plenty lined up for SS23. Hot off the back of dropping their three-colour collection of 860v2s, and 1906R, the duo is providing fans with more takes on the New Balance 550, which are available via raffle at Aimé Leon Dore.
Though the 550 was far from Santis’ first New Balance collab, at this point it's probably the best-known one. Santis’ early takes on the shoe were the whole reason for the 550’s comeback in the first place, and just one of the reasons he was trusted with the Creative Director role of the Made in USA division.
Here, a fuzzy brown suede contrasts with smooth cream leather panels, with branding hits arriving in similar tones. A brown ‘N’ logo is stamped on the side of the shoe while Aimé Leon Dore branding hits the heel, and the tongue tab is finished with a tonal co-branding hit. Peeking closely at the shoes, they could very well be the same pair that leaked back in February.
A beige-coloured version of the same suede-topped sneaker is also dropping, while the recent Aimé Leon Dore lookbook also showcased a couple of high-top New Balance 650s, and smarter footwear options.
Peep the new pairs right here, and be sure to get your raffle entry in over on Aimé Leon Dore if you're looking to add them to your collection.
