Dad sneakers have been popularized both on and off the runway and Aries and New Balance partnered to capitalize on the bulky sneaker concept.
London-based label Aries recently hosted a pop-up in the city's bustling Covent Garden. This collaboration follows shortly after that strategically planned event and appeals to stylish fashionistas, or those looking for a practical look to add to their sneaker rotation. The collaborative shoe features a gray colorway that's complemented by a vibrant pop of yellow, blue and red color in the top corner of the shoe. The sneaker's heel features an all-black cap and is embroidered with '990v3' and the brand names of both collaborators.
