In a world full of ongoing collab partnerships, the connection between downtown New York streetwear staple Aime Leon Dore and New Balance is set in stone, or at least an employment contract. ALD founder Teddy Santis has been moonlighting as the lead at New Balance Made in USA for a few years now, and when it comes to collabs, he always looks out for his first love.
ALD’s New Balance Partnership Continues
The Aime Leon Dore x New Balance Running Pack is the latest multi-shoe collection with ALD co-branding, with all three pairs previously getting a release via Aime Leon Dore channels. First, the running part of the collection adds a FuelCell Rebel v5 and FuelCell SC Elite to the industry’s race day obsession, while a soft suede Gator Run takes care of the lifestyle side of things.
On the FuelCell Rebel v5 and SC Elite, ALD runs into darkness, combining a black toe and lower upper with a colorful gradient at the top, the Rebel in blue and the SC Elite in green. On the Gator Run, a cream colorway combines knit mesh and soft suede on the upper with black contrast on the midsole and studded outsole tread.
