Dropping as part of a three-piece collaborative pack, the Aimé Leon Dore x New Balance T500 ‘Green’ revives a performance tennis silhouette originally released in 1982. The low-top carries an ivory leather upper, marked with a green ‘N’ logo in an embossed snakeskin texture. Additional green accents land on the synthetic leather collar lining, dual-branded tongue tag, and back tab, featuring mismatched Aimé Leon Dore and New Balance branding. The sneaker rests on a durable rubber cupsole in a vintage off-white finish.


From the extravagant sole unit to the breathable mesh upper, an onslaught of neutrals dresses the entirety of the upcoming pair while bringing a bit more flair when compared to the model’s past understated efforts. As crisp white hues line the front half of the midsole, a decadent cream cures the mesh base and suede-treated overlays for a versatile arrangement. Elsewhere, vibrant hits of faded yellow enter the fold via the heel while silver metallic N logos shine across the mid-foot. Just below, a jet-black tread brings a clarifying close to the robust cushioning system and gleaming palette.
