Everything Dropping at HBX Archives This Week
Featuring Aimé Leon Dore x New Balance’s 550 sneakers in “Brown.”
Following the previous release featuring a multi-pocket shirt jacket from WTAPS, HBX Archives is back with a wide selection of coveted footwear, apparel, accessories and collectibles.
Launched in 2016, HBX Archives has become a go-to place for sourcing unique pieces from the fashion and streetwear world. From brands like Gucci and Stone Island to sacai and Burberry, HBX Archives sources interesting pieces of the past for sale on its online web store.
Leading this week’s drop is a mix of footwear styles spanning swoon-worthy sneakers from the likes of New Balance, to edgy platforms by Alexander McQueen to the retro-glam Peyton loafer pumps from Gucci. From the selection, the spotlighted style is the Aimé Leon Dore x New Balance 550 in “Brown.” Arrive in hairy suede uppers, the kicks feature co-branding on its tongue labels, sock liners, and spin, while slightly yellowed outsoles enhance its vintage appeal.
As for apparel, the selection comprises understated staples such as plain button-up shirts from NEIGHBORHOOD, minimalist jackets from WTAPS to eccentric pieces like Junya Watanabe’s Sarouel jeans. Making up the accessories portion are luxurious designer eyewear and handbags. Standout picks from the selection include the Valentino Vlogo Moon Hobo bag, the Burberry TB leather bag in red, Saint Laurent monogram sunnies and YY5010 round sunglasses from Yohji Yamamoto.

The first is Joan Cornellà’s Fwen Club SEIBWOZ (Super FWEN Edition), which comes with both pink and glow-in-the-dark brain parts. The other is Juce Gace’s MIGHTY JAXX vinyl figure “A Wood Awakening” Classic Edition vinyl figure, featuring The Adventures of Pinocchio.
