Aimé Leon Dore released this orange-based take on the New Balance 990 V4 last year, but I scooped them up during their end of year holiday sale. Who can say no to discounted collabs? In my video I break down all the components of the shoe and show you how they are on feet. Thoughts on them?

The Nike ACG Izy originally released in the late 90s but finally received its first retro treatment with the release a couple months ago.
