Aimé Leon Dore and New Balance are making hit after hit with their collaborations. Together, they reintroduced the 550 silhouette to the market and it immediately became extremely popular. The resell prices of the sneaker shot up immediately. Even after the release of the collaboration, the model was also in demand on its own.

One of the colorways that ALD and New Balance worked on together was this grey colorway. The upper is made of leather and is mainly in white. Grey details are used on the upper. For example, the branding, overlay, heel cap and outsole is in this minimalist colour.
