New Balance 550, Aime Leon Dore White Navy

White Navy ALD, Build Notes

NB 550 ALD White Navy released October 9 2020 alongside the rest of the Wave 1 quartet. Style code BB550ALF, $130 retail. Cream leather construction throughout the upper, navy accents on the cracked “N” logo, collar lining, tongue label, and outsole. The cream base shifts toward warm white under indoor light rather than reading bright white.

Navy on the N is the deep saturated kind, almost black under low light, blue once it catches direct lighting. The pre-yellowed EVA midsole adds the patina that Teddy Santis built the ALD aesthetic around. Side-by-side with the White Green and White Red, navy stays the most office-friendly and the easiest to dress up. Among the cleaner navy 550 reps in stock. Strong pick among the fake New Balance 550 options. Sits on the New Balance reps page. Standard 550 fit, TTS. Catalog at sneaker reps.
