Aimé Leon Dore x New Balance “Pristine” Pack Drops Tomorrow

Aimé Leon Dore New Balance Pristine Pack

Aimé Leon Dore and New Balance have settled into a nice flow, regularly releasing new project through a variety of methods. Their latest work, the two-piece “Pristine” pack, will be available tomorrow morning.

Aimé Leon Dore’s standing in the sneaker world is tied directly, and exclusively to New Balance. The two first teamed up in 2020, as ALD was still a fledgling cut & sew apparel brand, and have delivered a number of smash hit collaborations in the five years since. ALD has helped launch a number of new and retro models, while also hand picking some retros like the 550 that became staples of the NB catalog.

This week, Aimé Leon Dore and New Balance are releasing their latest work, dubbed by fans as the “Pristine” pack. Featuring two recently-revived retro models, the 475 and the T500, these simple, sleek styles are perfect Summer kicks, and ALD has dressed them both in pristine white colorways for their new Spring apparel collection. The 475 features a variety of materials and white shades across the upper, with black hits for the heels and outsoles, while the T500 also comes with a mix of textiles in this premium edition.

AIME LEON DORE X NEW BALANCE “PRISTINE” PACK RELEASE INFORMATION

The latest work from New York’s Aimé Leon Dore and New Balance has been scheduled to release tomorrow, on March 28th, 2025. Featuring crisp white editions of the 475 and T500 models, pairs will be available via ALD stores and online 11 AM Eastern time. Prices have not been announced yet, but expect a slight surcharge for the ALD touch.

The Kobe x Nike Air Force 1 “Lenticular” Pack Drops This Year

Kobe Nike Air Force 1 Lenticular II3925-400

The estate of Kobe Bryant, now overseen by his wife Vanessa, has been hard at work bringing the Mamba’s Nike line back in full force. This week, we have an early look at a new Air Force 1 project, the “Lenticular” pack, coming soon.

The Air Force 1 has been a frequent lifestyle canvas for Kobe Bryant projects over the years, with the first pairs release way back in the 2000s, when he first signed with Nike. Now, twenty years and many sneaker models later, the AF1 is still a prominent piece of the Kobe sneaker family, with many special-edition releases popping up over the last year. This week, we have an early look at a new edition to the family, the “Lenticular” pack, coming soon.

The next release of a Kobe Bryant x Nike Air Force 1 bring some unique design choices to the iconic shoe. Currently known as the Lenticular Pack, two pairs will feature the snakeskin-patterned upper, reportedly with a lenticular printing effect. This means that elements of the shoe will appear to be in motion, thanks to the clever printing technique that can make 2D object appear as 3D or moving with some visual trickery. Teased by Vanessa Bryant, she shared an early look at the “Armory Blue” color scheme, with a Soft Yellow pair also rumored to release.

KOBE BRYANT X NIKE AIR FORCE 1 LOW “LENTICULAR” RELEASE INFORMATION

The next release of Nike’s Air Force 1 inspired by Kobe Bryant has not been announced yet, but is currently expected to release late in 2025. The “Lenticular” pack will include two colors, the “Light Armory Blue” pair seen here, as well as a “Soft Yellow” pair, which remains unseen as of now. Pairs will be available from both Nike and select retailers for $130.

Shoe Palace’s New Balance 9060 “Cyber” Releases This Week

0

Shoe Palace is taking us back to the era before collaborations, when stores released SMU only available through their storefronts. Their take on the New Balance 9060, in a “Cyber” themed palette, arrives this week.

Before Stussy and Nike pioneered the modern sneaker collaboration in the early 2000s, stores and brands would work together on special make-ups, or SMUs. Where modern collaborations include a more emphasized story and often include new materials, SMUs took a shoe as it was and simply applied a new color scheme, to be sold exclusively at said retailer. This week, Shoe Palace is taking us back to that era with their take on a New Balance 9060.

The upcoming release from Shoe Palace and New Balance returns to the 9060 that has been immensely popular over the last few years since it was introduced in 2023. The chunky runner-inspired look gets a Y2K-meets-Cyberpunk style, featuring a largely black colorway with some silver 3M reflective hits. The mesh underlay features a reflective backing, and piping along the shoes overlays give it a striped, eye-catching look. The heels of the midsole add a splash of color to the palette with a muted green tone.

SHOE PALACE X NEW BALANCE 9060 “CYBER” RELEASE INFORMATION

Shoe Palace has scheduled their latest New Balance 9060 SMU to release this week, on March 28th, 2025. The Y2K-inspired “Cyber” color scheme in black and silver will be available exclusively through Shoe Palace’s stores and online, with a price tag of $150.

New Balance Allerdale White UADWWHI

Early this month, New Balance unveiled an unusual new model, the Made in UK Allerdale, a dedicated walking shoe. Built like an upscale sneaker, the all-leather, simple model has surfaced in a new white colorway, coming this Summer.

New Balance has always been a brand dedicated to walking and taking care of your feet. When the company was founded in 1906, the sole product in their catalog was a set of sole inserts that provided extra cushioning and gave you a ‘new balance’. While their products have evolved tremendously since then, walking and comfort are still at the core of everything they produce.

This year, the Boston brand is getting back to those roots with a brand new walking silhouette, the Allerdale. Produced exclusively through their Made in UK program, the shoe is meant to be a simple, everyday wear sneaker with premium materials and a durable comfort, thanks to Ortholite inserts and sturdy traction for the outsole. Originally unveiled in a dark brown color scheme, an all-white look has surfaced this week ahead of the shoe’s official debut.

NEW BALANCE ALLERDALE “WHITE” RELEASE INFORMATION

New Balance’s release of the new Allerdale silhouette does not have a set date yet, but is currently expected to launch sometime in Summer 2025. The premium walking shoe from their Made in UK program will likely be available from both NB and select retailers, with a price tag set at $250.

adidas’ EQT Predator Run Bridges Retro Style With Modern Tech

adidas has quietly been working on their EQT and Predator product lines in recent years, slowly releasing retro and new models from each. This Summer, they are merging the two into one with the EQT Predator Run, coming soon.

adidas has a new silhouette releasing this year, which blends two of their iconic product lines into one for a sporty new look, the EQT Predator Run. Both product families originated in the early ’90s, with EQT meant for stripped down, bare essentials running shoes, and the Predator boot as their premier soccer shoe, famous for its aggressive Three Stripes. This Summer, the two are merging into a brand new model, which brings the best of both worlds into one lifestyle sneaker.

The EQT Predator Run has quietly appeared this week, and might be one of our favorite new releases from adidas in recent years.

The upper features wavy, smooth lines in the paneling, and is mounted on top of a tall LightStrike cushioning sole unit. Seen here in a black and white colorway, the look adds Aura Purple mesh to the base layer, backed by a reflective textile.
