Japanese Label AURALEE Announces Collab with New Balance 550

AURALEE from Japan is a rather inconspicuous brand here in Europe, but soon, we will get to know the label much better. On Instagram, AURALEE has announced a collaboration with New Balance. We can look forward to a new colourway of the retro sneaker. For this, AURALEE uses the typical look, which is characterised by a minimalist style.

AURALEE's own spin is a subtle colourway and high-quality materials. It's just perfect for the new 2021 autumn/winter collection, in which the sneakers have also made their first appearance. The new AURALEE x New Balance 550 has a tonal and classy make-up, which is realised from the heel all the way to the toes. Other changes we see in the midsole with a yellowed vintage hue.

In addition, there are elegant finishes on the inside of the sneaker. The insoles are made of leather for a cushioned appearance, which is reminiscent of earlier AURALEE collabs and goes well with the apparel. Lastly, outsoles with a soft beige tone round off the overall design.

When Is the AURALEE x New Balance 550 Set to Drop?

The AURALEE x New Balance 550 is part of the AURALEE FW21 collection. As such, fans are expecting a late summer 2021 drop, with the sneakers also likely to be released directly by New Balance.
