New Balance 550, Aime Leon Dore White Navy Red

Wave 1 Navy vs Wave 2 Navy Red

The first ALD wave dropped White Navy on October 9 2020. The second wave brought NB 550 ALD White Navy Red on April 16 2021. Style code BB550A3, $130 retail. The Wave 2 pair builds off the Wave 1 navy template but introduces red accents on the N logo overlay and tongue woven label, making it the more visually busy of the two.

White leather across the base, dark navy collar lining and tongue, red on the cracked N and tongue patch. Red appears in the tooling underfoot too but stays understated against the full white upper. Pre-yellowed midsole stays consistent with Wave 1. The Wave 2 pack celebrated Teddy Santis joining New Balance MADE in USA as Creative Director, which gives this colorway extra context in the ALD timeline.
