The Aimé Leon Dore x New Balance 993 'Mulberry Green' is finally here

Update on December 23, 2024 – The highly anticipated Aimé Leon Dore x New Balance 993 'Mulberry Green' is finally here. The sneaker pays homage to the Porsche 993 Turbo, a favorite car of ALD founder Teddy Santis. Earlier this year, Aimé Leon Dore unveiled their Porsche collaboration, which, in my opinion, was one of the best partnerships of 2024.

Now, the accompanying sneaker has arrived.

Reservations for the Aimé Leon Dore x New Balance 993 in the 'Mulberry Green' colorway have been open since December 20, 2024. The sneaker connects Aimé Leon Dore's love for fashion and sports cars, presenting a chic version of the 993 inspired by the '90s.

You can secure your pair by reserving one through the ALD website. However, you’ll need to be patient before you get your hands on the sneaker, as it won’t ship until September 2025. Read more about the silhouette below and sign up!

Aimé Leon Dore translates the Porsche 993 Turbo into the New Balance 993

(Original post: 11/21/2024)

Aimé Leon Dore (ALD) and New Balance are back with a collab that’s sure to get sneakerheads and car enthusiasts excited. Their latest project is all about a one-of-a-kind version of the New Balance 993, inspired by the iconic Porsche 993 Turbo.

The New Balance captures the essence of the Porsche 993 Turbo, with its shiny green paint reflected in the premium suede upper. Tonal cream details and bright yellow accents, like the sockliner and the 993 branding, add a playful contrast and highlight the sporty vibe of the inspiration.

On top of Teddy Santis working his magic on the sneaker, the designer’s also bringing out a custom Porsche 993 Turbo. The car blends the striking ‘Mulberry Green’ with a luxe interior of brown leather and lambswool, making it a perfect reflection of Santis’ design vision.

Lastly, there’s going to be an exclusive clothing drop as well. The collection features a range of items, from leather jackets to cosy jumpers, all with subtle co-branding. Each piece is designed with the luxury and attention to detail we’ve come to expect from both ALD and Porsche. It perfectly reflects the refined style and craftsmanship that define both brands.
