You may know Teddy Santis from Aimé Leon Dore, that brand you have trouble pronouncing that's shaping the next chapter in menswear. 

With his knack for pairing athletic with preppy with an undercurrent of timeless staples, Santis has created his own vision of modern Americana that is a unique signature, not a caricature. 

But aside from pairing sweatpants & oxford shirts and blazers & basketball shorts, Santis' ability to cherry pick the New Balance 550 as a sneaker worth a resurrections will go down as one of his greatest services to menswear. And he's just getting started. 

Appointed as the Creative Director of New Balance’s “Made In USA” program back in April of 2021, this unofficial sneaker scout is now literally at the reigns. With his first collection finally here, lead by versions of the 990v1, 990v2 and 990v3, classic hoodies, sweatpants, and sweatshirts round it out, setting the tone for what will surely be a long regime.
