Japanese designer Ryota Iwai and his brand AURALEE continues to build on its New Balance partnership with another collaboration. Earlier last summer, the brand unveiled the 475 in two new colorways during its Paris Fashion Week SS25 runway show . This time around for the Fall/Winter 2025 season, AURALEE has debuted a new New Balance T500 collaboration.
The tennis shoe silhouette is an everyday sneaker that redefines casual athletic footwear. While it was originally made for the courts in 1982, the shoe has been reintroduced in as the go-to early ’80s-inspired tennis shoe for current times. The shoew as previously made popular with several Aimé Leon Dore and now, it receives another resurgence as AURALEE’s silhouette of choice for FW25.
Constructed out of premium materials, the shoe embodies simplicity and elegance that is fit for everyday wear. This time around AURALEE and New Balance have dropped two special colorways for the FW25 season. Debuted on the runway, the T500 is set to release in “Brown” hue along side a premium “Lime Green” colorway.
The added perforated toe-box makes way for breathability as the shoe is constructed out of premium leather. The color combinations are subtle and neutral, going for the tonal color scheme. The shoe comes with co-branded AURALEE and New Balance insoles and will arrive in a custom shoe box.
Stay tuned for the official release date of the upcoming FW25 AURALEE x New Balance CT500 collaboration..
