A Closer Look at AURALEE's FW22 New Balance XC-72 Collaboration
The silhouette has been redesigned in three tonal colorways.




AURALEE has continued its ongoing collaboration with New Balance, unveiling a series of new XC-72 colorways as part of its Fall/Winter 2022 collection. The new design follows on from recent collaborations such as last year’s stripped-back take on the 550 silhouette and the 2002r design from the Tokyo label’s Spring/Summer 2022 collection.
The FW22 show previewed the silhouette in three colorways, each of which tied in with the wider collection’s color palette. This included muted designs in a chocolate brown and tonal beige, as well as a pop of color in the form of the “Cobalt Blue” colorway. All three colorways are constructed from a series of premium materials, including sections of hairy suede and leather on the upper, while the silhouette’s rugged outsole arrives in tonal colors.
For more from New Balance, a string of new 2002r colorways are set to release in the near future.
