Michael Le Fortune very clearly favors New Balance, as the footwear brand had the pleasure of not just crossing paths but joining forces with the likes of Aimé Leon Dore. And while they’ve helped to popularize many a different model, none are quite as synonymous with the New York-based streetwear label as the 550.
Over the course of their partnership, Aimé Leon Dore has crafted numerous styles of New Balance’s much-beloved basketball oxford. And following a limited release much earlier in the year, their latest two — namely, the “True Brown” and “Warm Sand” — will finally be seeing wider launch tomorrow, August 9th. Brought back with exceptional timing, the two colorways embody the Fall season in their deep, earth tones, which wash over top a classic suede and canvas construction. ALD branding, of course, stamps the heel and insole, signing off yet another solid addition to Teddy Santis’ winning formula.
Enjoy another look at the Aimé Leon Dore x New Balance 550 in “True Brown” and “Warm Sand” ahead. Both are slated to hit NewBalance.com tomorrow, August 9th, for a retail of $130 USD.
In other news, more Pharrell adidas Samba Humanrace colorways are releasing later this week.
