New Balance has been enjoying an exceptional year for new releases, with a string of eye-catching sneakers that showcase its forward-thinking design approach. The latest release sees New Balance collaborating with one of New York City’s most exciting brands, Aimé Leon Dore, to present a slip-on sports shoe that combines striking aesthetics with high-performance materials.


The ALD / New Balance MT10T Sport Shoe continues Aimé Leon Dore’s summer 2025 rollout, combining island ease with the edginess that New York fashion is renowned for. Aimé Leon Dore’s reputation in the fashion industry has been growing since it was founded by Teddy Santis in 2014. The following year, it made waves with its updated take on the classic Puma State sneaker.
This new collaboration takes the iconic barefoot-style silhouette and incorporates water sock-like uppers, leather piping, and additional high-quality features. Designed for casual wearing on the beach, the ALD/ New Balance MT10T Sport Shoe features custom, co-branded drawstring lace toggles for a comfortable and secure fit.
New Balance’s trademark traction is also present, with rugged Vibram rubber outsoles for a firm grip on all terrain. The additional rubber foxing with Aimé Leon Dore and New Balance co-branding is matched with a stylish Nubuck upper, finished with a debossed Queens crest at the vamp.
Available in three stunning colorways, including neon yellow, olive green, and a black, red, and sage green combination, the ALD / New Balance MT10T Sport Shoe is an impressive collaboration between two titans of contemporary fashion.
