Spearheaded by visionary eye Teddy Santis, Aimé Leon Dore continues to break the mold of style by marrying fashion with offshoots of other industries. Thus, this season, Aimé Leon Dore aimed for something exciting – a collaboration that brings the quality of high-end automotive accents and the sensibilities of urban streetwear. In that respect, the special edition Aimé Leon Dore x New Balance sneaker is most suitable because it so aptly meshes with the cool design of the custom Porsche 993 Turbo.
Unveiling the Design Vision
Design inspiration comes specifically with the extreme attention to detail Santis was able to procure for this joint collaboration. The premium suede overlays are saturated in rich, deep greens to match the Mulberry Green hue of the bespoke Porsche exterior. This visual synesthesia creates something timeless and welcoming to both sneaker heads and car cognoscenti. Luxuriate and haves of class are further elevated with brown leather interior features similar to those of the Porsche cabin designs.
Crafting Cohesive Designs
Every inch of this limited edition sneaker has been made to lend to a cohesive feel. The bold yellow sock liner speaks in bold contrast and draws parallels with the sport-infused undertones of the Porsche 993 Turbo. These colours are perhaps one of the finest embodiments of ALD London’s flagship ethos: tradition uprooted in modern stylistic elements.
Emphasizing Comfort and Style
The comfort of the outstanding New Balance, combined with quality craftsmanship and style, makes these a must-have. As one steps into the lambswool interior of these sneakers, the commitment to blending fashion and automotive design becomes evident. Commitment to ergonomics ensures that while aesthetics are paramount, practicality is never compromised.
A Teddy Santis Masterpiece
This had served as a proof that Teddy Santis was once again unmatched in developing products that posed both art and functionality. The project epitomized innovation, elegance, and real usability all blended in the same output. These cohesive designs in this collection herald something newer for such collaborative projects.
