Aimé Leon Dore and New Balance Drop the 650 in a Blue Colorway
References: highsnobiety
New Balance continues to grow its collaborative work alongside New York City's Aimé Leon Dore as the duo shines a spotlight on the 650 sneaker model, delivering a blue colorway palette. The high-top lifestyle sneakers are detailed with blue and white colors throughout the silhouette, but there has yet to be a release date.
The construction is prepared for the warmer seasons of the year with its open mesh base to add a touch of breathability. On top of this is leather paneling throughout, leading down towards the gum sole units. New Branding branding details the medial side of the shoe and it is presumed that Aimé Leon Dore's branding will be seen along the tongue, similar to previous iterations.
