Off the back of an eye-wateringly expensive coffee machine collaboration with La Marzocco, Aimé Leon Dore has released the fifth instalment of its Spring Summer ‘25 collection.
Aimé Leon Dore heralds the warmer months by drawing on founder Teddy Santis’ personal heritage, setting up camp on the Greek Island of Milos to shoot an accompanying campaign that captures the allure of whitewashed buildings and pastel-hued, weather-beaten shoreline architecture, mixed with a flash of colour from a local dinghy, or in this case, a neon pink cycling jersey.
Aimé Leon Dore’s first step into Summer mirrors its surroundings, coming to life through reinvented throwbacks to sailing culture blended with a mass of knits and tops that emphasise pure wearability.
Relaxed knitwear is a major component in ALD’s latest release, offering several styles built from linen, loose-gauge cotton, and wool-silk blends. Fine textures extend to shirting and formal-leaning shorts, alongside berets, tote bags, and leather slippers.
The release also signals the official reveal of New Balance’s latest model, the MT10T Sport Shoe.

Aimé Leon Dore is given the honour of introducing the silhouette in three exclusive colourways: “Neon”, “Black”, and “Olive”. Slotting seamlessly into wider seasonal themes of casual sportswear, the Aimé Leon Dore x New Balance MT10T is clearly inspired by purpose-built water shoes, taking on a sleek, one-piece upper construction that prioritises function with a single-toggle lacing system, moulded rubber panelling, and low-profile Vibram sole units, included as part of New Balance’s push towards minimalist footwear technology.
General sporty vibes and retro colour-blocking are explored further with branded rashguards, jerseys, bold graphic tees, and headgear, plus direct homages to famous European sportswear brands and two pairs of shorts respectively aligned with New York’s cherished baseball teams, the Yankees and the Mets.
Final highlights include mesh ringer tees, micro-logo windbreakers, and the linen track jacket and shorts set.
