A Turf Relic Returns in Hairy Suede
Aime Leon Dore pulled the Gator Run out of the New Balance archive and rebuilt it in Angora.
The Gator Run was a turf shoe. Aime Leon Dore and New Balance have dragged it out of the archive and rebuilt the whole material package around texture: hairy suede overlays mounted on a nylon underlay, tonal on tonal, in a soft Angora makeup.
Unisex. $129.99. Out now.
The upper does everything here. It is the kind of shoe that looks better after a season of being worn badly, which is the highest compliment a shoe can earn.
