AURALEE x New Balance 550 ‘Ecru’

Conceived in partnership with the Tokyo-based fashion label, the AURALEE x New Balance 550 ‘Ecru’ delivers a refined take on the vintage hoops. A subdued off-white finish is executed on the leather upper, save for a New Balance wordmark in contrasting black lettering on the heel tab. In lieu of traditional nylon, the tongue is constructed from leather and stripped of the oversized woven tag. Mismatched New Balance and AURALEE branding is stamped on each shoe’s sockliner. The low-top rests on a pre-yellowed rubber midsole with an EVA wedge for lightweight cushioning.
