Aimé Leon Dore works in collaboration with New Balance once again, continuing to build its ongoing partnership and this time around, the two launch the TWO WXY v3 sneaker model. Back in 2022, the two unveiled the shoes at Masaryk Towers. This space is a community gym that represents the city and was originally refurbished by Nike in 2012.
The idea of community is the main theme of the latest shoes as the phrase is also a core value to Aimé Leon Dore and its brand as well. When the two decided to partner with the gym, the sneakers were never made available for sale to the public, as the shoes were only donated to the local Amateur Athletic Union.
