Much of New Balance's success has been derived from its strategy to align with impactful collaborators in the realm of streetwear, and one of the brands that have garnered them a considerable amount of attention is Aimé Leon Dore. The NY-based label has assisted the brand through collaborations atop its 550 as well as through its founder Teddy Santis who has taken the reins on its ongoing MADE in USA collection, and now it's lending its touch to another batch of 650R installments.
This new initiative features a trio of new colorways: "Green", "Navy" and Grey." Each offering comes treated with full-grain leather overlays as well as mesh underlays. Co-branded hits arrive on the tongues, shoe inserts, lower heels and shoe boxes while New Balance spell-outs are printed across the collars. Creamy N logos and bottoms add a touch of vintage flair.
Interested in copping? All three pairs are being released through a draw that's live on the Aimé Leon Dore website and concludes on October 6 at 11:59 AM EDT. The retail price is set at $165 USD a piece.
