Aime Leon Dore (ALD) has solidified itself as a key player in the footwear world, especially regarding collaborations with New Balance. Under the leadership of Teddy Santis, the brand has consistently delivered sought-after collections that merge heritage aesthetics with modern appeal. While Santis has been busy curating his Season 6 Made in USA Collection for New Balance, his work with ALD thrives. Following the recent teasers of the ALD x New Balance 475, the New York-based brand has just unveiled its Fall/Winter 2024 Collection, which includes two standout colorways of the New Balance 997, worn by rapper Mach-Hommy in the campaign.
The Aime Leon Dore x New Balance 997 Made in USA Pack features two distinct renditions: Dark Moss Angora and Grey Midnight. The Dark Moss Angora pair showcases a premium construction with a mesh base and high-quality leather overlays. A yellow tongue and a burgundy-red overlay near the collar contrast the deep green upper. Cream tones appear on the laces, sockliner, and midsole, adding a touch of classic elegance. Meanwhile, the Grey Midnight colorway leans into New Balance’s classic look with a combination of suede and mesh. The grey hues on the mudguard, midfoot, and heel are complemented by tan and cream accents, while a striking red tongue adds a bold pop. The midsole is dressed in cream, with a black rubber outsole providing the finishing touch.
The Aime Leon Dore x New Balance 997 Made in USA Pack will release in November 2024 through Aime Leon Dore, New Balance, and select retailers online and in-store.
