New York imprint Aimé Leon Dore continues to work closely with New Balance and launch a set of the classic 650R sneaker model. The official drop date is set for tomorrow and the small capsule will be available to shop online at Aimé Leon Dore.
The duo have a close relationship and the basketball sneaker model is no stranger, but this time around, it gets summer-ready colorways. At first, the brands delivered a quick glance at the upcoming shoes, but only the sky blue iteration. However, it is now unveiled that there will also be a green colorway and a black colorway as well. The sneakers are made from a tumbled leather material throughout the upper with perforated accents, co=branded tongue, heel, and label, rounded out by an open hole mesh underlay.
