Artful Classic Earthy Sneakers

AURALEE and New Balance Drop a New RC30 Sneaker with a Soft Texture

AURALEE works in collaboration with New Balance to unveil a new iteration of the RC30 sneaker model. It was showcased during the AURALEE Spring/Summer 2023 fashion show on the runways seen alongside the rest of its seasonal pieces.

Together, the two highlight the colorway and texture of the new footwear, starting with an earthy tonal palette of both beige and green. It is made from a hairy suede material for a soft textural look and feel, complete with the matching ripple outsole unit. It boasts a vintage flair to the design due to the texture and tones of the shoe. The beige is slightly more muted and the green is a bold look for the season.
