Every dog has its day and the shoe dogs of New Balance and Aim\u00e9 Leon Dore have been having theirs, plenty of them by now. It’s a match a made in heaven, a duo that fits like a glove, from NB’s vintage silhouettes, to ALD’s varsity aesthetic proclivities. There’ve been more teased recently to ascertain what’s in the pipeline like the 550<\/a> and 1906R<\/a>. In their ever-expanding story together, comes a new take on the 650R.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It’s a familiar look with some modifications however\u2014albeit minor. One is the color-blocking wherein the color sees an application in more parts in the standard release, the sample pair sees a restrained approach accented only on the strip on the ankle collar, the heel bracket below, and the topmost eyelet. The rest, from base layer to overlays, comes in white.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Another part where it deviates is the construction, the most noteworthy one being the “N” logo on the profiles. Here, it becomes a window that gives visibility to, and frames the mesh interior. The outsole as well comes equipped with a uniform gum rubber outsole as opposed to the tri-color design of its predecessor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Not much is known about the pair just yet with the limited view provided by the leaked image by @dane3fune<\/a>. When more information does surface though, expect to find them here. Stay tuned!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
