Teddy Santis presents a look at yet another collaborative sneaker model alongside New Balance -- this time, highlighting the 860v2s silhouette. It was unveiled online on Aime Leon Dore's Instagram account with the far-out anticipated date of February to March 2024.
There are three colorway palettes that are set to launch including the bold orange and yellow that lead the entire collection. It is followed by a white colorway palette for a more muted look and a bright yellow option. On the pre-order website, the brand notes that “Once your reservation is placed, your payment method will be charged in full. You will receive confirmation via email after submitting your reservation. All reservations are final sale. No returns or exchanges will be accepted."
