After being teased earlier on this year, the latest Aimé Leon Dore x New Balance collaboration has been officially unveiled. Working on a rarely-seen archive silhouette titled the Rainier , the duo have tapped into the current gorpcore trend to offer up a hiking-style boot that will no doubt go down a treat with fans of both labels. Set to launch in three separate colourways that are all unapologetically ALD, the kicks also offer GORE-TEX uppers to ensure that they can combat even the harshest of weather conditions. Cordura panelling also adorns the uppers, while metal eyelets complete the utilitarian look that’s present throughout the boots.
If you’re as taken as we are with the return of the Rainier, the good news is that all three colourways are set to launch on the 16th December via Aimé Leon Dore outposts, with a New Balance release likely to be announced soon after.
