Teddy Santis, the creator of the fashion label Aimé Leon Dore, created a new silhouette for the New Balance 998v1 "Rich Earth." Rich Earth is the name of the rich brown shade that covers the upper of this shoe, which is made of a combination of leather, suede, mesh, and TPU. This contrasts with 'Chive' on the N logo and mesh on the toe cap, and it looks good with the light brown overlays. The shoe's outer sole is made of black rubber, and its two-tone cream and white midsole completes the look.
