In a nod to its iconic legacy, New Balance is pulling out all the stops for the 25th anniversary of the New Balance 1000. This celebration becomes even more special with the inclusion of a trio of collaborative colorways from the creative mind of Teddy Santis, the Creative Director of New Balance’s Made in USA line. Known for his visionary work with Aimé Leon Dore (ALD), Santis infuses these special edition sneakers with a refined aesthetic that balances tradition and modernity.
The Aimé Leon Dore x New Balance 1000 collection includes three colors: White, Black, and Grey. Each pair is crafted from mesh and leather, ensuring comfort and durability. The “Black” pair stands out with sophisticated patent leather and translucent overlays. This adds elegance and a modern twist to the classic design.
Subtle “Aimé” branding appears on the tongues, lateral forefoot, and insoles. This keeps the minimalist and clean design ethos of ALD. The iconic “N” logos on the side panels highlight New Balance’s heritage. Each pair also comes with a custom hangtag, adding exclusivity.
