Aimé Leon Dore x New Balance Present Another SONNY Basketball Capsule

As a gamer who’s been around the block a few times, I must say, this Aimé Leon Dore x New Balance collaboration is nothing short of a slam dunk! The retro athletic vibe they’ve got going on here, it’s like stepping into a time machine and landing right in the heart of ’80s basketball culture.


Aimé Leon Dore and New Balance are once again joining forces, this time celebrating Aimé Leon Dore’s SONNY Basketball Club. To mark the first-ever international Aimé Leon Dore x New Balance SONNY basketball tournament taking place in Paris, they have combined their efforts to bring us another impressive collaboration.

Led by members Amir Lawrence, Bryan DeLeon, and Jaden Rodriguez from SONNY Youth Club, the lookbook showcases the Fall/Winter 2024 assortment of clothing and footwear.

Influenced by vintage sports apparel, notable pieces encompass navy blue and green tracksuits, a jacket embellished with varsity-style embroidery, along with a selection of jerseys and mesh shorts. At the heart of this collection is the ALD x New Balance HESI LOW V2 basketball shoe, characterized by shades of navy and green, enhanced with gold accents.

In a statement on their website, Aimé Leon Dore expressed that these three young men are not just family to ALD, but they serve as representatives, or ambassadors, of the Masaryk Community Gym. They play crucial roles within our SONNY Youth Club after-school program. This Paris trip provided them with a unique city experience while enabling them to share the spirit and vibe of the NYC Masaryk Community Gym at this international tournament.

Take a closer look at the team’s trip abroad in the video below.
