Aimé Leon Dore x New Balance 860 V2 "Green" & "Blue": Review & On-Feet

[@BWen3]

Hardest working man in sneaker KZbin. 🎉🎉

❤️🙏🔥

I had the 860v3 in high school for running cross country. They were by far the comfiest and most durable shoe I used back then. Perfect for my narrow, high arch foot. I'm not a sneakerhead by any means but it's really cool and interesting to see these back as a designer collaboration release.

[@michaelguadalupe1706]

Got the blue ones. They look great and still almost at retail

[@kevdaylight]

Purposely got the red for the following reasons: 1) as you said green is the most quintessential ALD color so chances of winning wouldve dropped compared to choosing the other 2 2) have so much green NBs already, having a red collab definitely is a breath of fresh air 3) I chose charmander over bulbasaur and squirtle in the pokemon game years ago 🤣

[@SeanGo]

hahaha last point 😆

[@kevdaylight]

@@SeanGo one of the rare times for a collab that I won’t “catch em’ all” 😉

[@LeanieSigel]

Lol

Nice review! I hit on the Red. Feels like I've been piling up greens and blues in my collection, so wanted to mix it up a bit. The Green are the best of the trio in my opinion, but I'm hoping to grab the 1906Rs from ALD so avoided the Green here. I do like how light these are, a good summer shoe. And the ALD branding adds a nice touch.

[@eja35oz]

I can't decide between the default laces and the cream. Both look so good and make the shoe look completely different

[@mikedonovan9783]

I got enough green shoes including some ALD ones. I got the blue 860v2 ALD and they are fire

[@konradmaerzluft985]

I went for the blue and green also. Got the green ones but not the blue ones. I wanted the blue ones because I have the 1906r green ones. Which I love.

[@Jerm__T]

It's even easier to love when so many people hate them! Copped in Red and Green. Perfect review as always!! 💪

[@jjjjax]

Thanks for the review Sean. I’m a big fan of these especially the red pair. I like how “techy” these look. Both the red and green are my favs.

[@Nanijoe10]

Ugh damn man. I've been trying to cool it with sneakers as part of my 2023 goal. These might break me though 😂 They just look so unique and great on foot compared to what I have. Green by far is my favorite, but I've got like 4-5 pairs of green NBs so I may just pick up the blue to diversify a bit. It helps that it's cheaper than green. Especially since it's almost all mesh.

[@oliverjones6687]

I get why these may divide opinions but I love them 👌🏼 Got to say with sizing though, my us10 felt fine at first (what I wear in 2002 and 1906, same as Sean) but after a few hours they seemed very narrow and were actually hurting my feet. Strange one but I’d now opt for half size up given the chance

[@SeanGo]

try loosening up the laces at all?

[@oliverjones6687]

@@SeanGo yeah but will give it another go as don’t want to get rid 😂👍🏼

[@purplestate]

This collab has grew on me. The green one is my favorite one, but I’ve got too many cream & green sneakers.

[@kinnierlastimosa2737]

I like the look in green for a sporty look and I do love the color and weave of the mesh on this and the ALD 991.

[@justsayin7865]

I like the Dime Collab

[@jjts240]

Got the green pair. Love it with the cream laces!

[@TheHilltopperNation]

This is obviously my opinion, but idk why everyone is putting in the plain cream laces in these. The other 2 two-tone options give so much more definition to the sneakers

[@SeanGo]

a bit busy of a design already so i prefer plainer laces

[@selfabsorbedsponge7246]

another great review, Sean. i actually was wondering, with all these sneakers you have ranging from lifestyle, to performance, and pure aesthetics, what’s your daily rotation look like? as someone with 120-ish pairs of sneakers, it hard for me to wear them all. might be a great vid to make if you haven’t already, and if you have maybe it’s time for an update? thanks again!

[@nurswiz]

Thanks for the review, love you bro, you are the best sneaker blogger.

[@danielalicea6634]

Sean you’re the man! Always come to your videos for reviews especially sizing. I am stilll torn between 10.5 which is my TTS and half size down. For reference I own NB x Kith 1300 in size 10 and NB x ALD 550 size 10. All nike air maxs / jordan 1 size 10.5. I also have the NB raincloud 2002r in size 10 which fits very snug (Which i prefer the 1:1) . should I go TTS in these or half size down you think?

[@Chancemorgan44]

Love my pair but man do they run small! Order half size up if possible!

[@michaelguadalupe1706]

Agree I ordered my normal tts NB and it was a little snug but I feel like it was more narrow than length

[@errolcsy]

Hard to pass on these but I did. Green pair was the one though.

[@DanganYankee]

Imma need those green ones 🔥

[@joel09899]

Which one would u prefer? The ALD green 860v2 or green 1906r ?

[@SeanGo]

i think 860

[@soulbro25]

Had a paint chip on my midsole, little disappointed but happy to cop

[@Oying76]

I passed on this release. As much as I want them, I need to take care of my needs first.

[@SinglePack]

Green all day that’s why I doubled up 🎉🎉❤❤

[@miggles4406]

I really dislike the copper on the toe. It really ruins the shoe for me

[@youngboysantos7201]

These are nice!!!

[@Gor.eri77]

Crazy good

[@ruoqingzhang6810]

Hi would you say you have a normal or a wide feet?

[@SeanGo]

between D and E width so just a touch wide

[@pinoymikee4062]

[@rosseilersb2196]

Great brannock says 12.5 lol

[@SeanGo]

rip lol

[@blackgoblin1004]

I'm in the group that really don't like these. I'm a fan of ALD, but these feel very underwhelming.
