Sneaker fans who missed out on the initial release of the Aimé Leon Dore x New Balance 550 “Suede” collabs will have another chance at buying the sneakers soon.

After the sneakers were released as part of the New York label’s 2023 spring/summer collection, the Boston-based sportswear company announced via its launch calendar that the two suede-based versions of the Aimé Leon Dore x New Balance 550 are releasing again tomorrow.

The Aimé Leon Dore x New Balance 550 sneakers are equipped with a premium hairy suede upper that is dressed in either a sand or brown color scheme. The low-cut sneaker is also equipped with Aimé Leon Dore’s apple logo stamped on the tongue tag, heel, and on the insole. Completing the look are a tan midsole and a gray outsole.

“Aimé Leon Dore presents the ‘Basketball Oxford’. This new interpretation of the perennial favorite swaps out the 550’s standard white leather construction for a casual touch. The 550’s upper construction features canvas underlays and premium, hairy suede overlays, outfitted in two muted, earth toned colorways – brown and taupe. Co-branding at the tongue and heel features Aimé Leon Dore’s signature apple basketball mark,” New Balance wrote for the product description.

The Aimé Leon Dore x New Balance 550 “Suede” colorways will be released tomorrow at newbalance.com, with each pair retailing for $130.
