Aimé Leon Dore continues to deepen its relationship with Porsche, unveiling a stunning new restoration of the legendary 993 Turbo. This marks the fourth official collaboration between the two brands, adding to an impressive lineup that includes custom renditions of the Porsche 944, 964, and 356.
The partnership first launched in 2020, when the New York-based fashion label debuted its reimagined 911 Carrera 4 (Type 964) in crisp white—a nod to the exterior of its Mulberry Street flagship. This was followed by a rugged 911 SC in olive green, complete with a roof rack brimming with nostalgic travel accessories, echoing founder Teddy Santis’s childhood holidays in the Greek islands. Most recently in 2023, the duo introduced a refined Porsche 356 B finished in a rich midnight navy, paired with aluminum wheels and minimal detailing.
Now, Aimé Leon Dore and Porsche present their most ambitious project yet: the Porsche 993 Turbo, originally launched in the mid-1990s. This one-of-one model arrives in Mulberry Green, a signature hue developed by Santis and the ALD team over the years—seen across collections from headwear to knitwear and now, automotive design.
More than just a visual statement, this reimagined 993 Turbo boasts a host of performance upgrades, including a front splitter, rear ‘whale tail’ wing, and exhaust system sourced from the Turbo S variant. It sits on matching 18-inch Turbo Twist rims, detailed with a gold accent and wrapped in Michelin Pilot Sport PS2 tires for elevated handling.
Inside, the car is a masterclass in luxurious comfort. Dark brown leather upholstery meets lambswool detailing, teddy bear brown carpeting, and plush textures throughout. A custom gold Unisphere gear knob—a tribute to the iconic Queens landmark and ALD’s roots—anchors the interior, while the door sills proudly read: “A team from outta Queens with the American dream.”
To accompany the vehicle launch, Aimé Leon Dore has dropped a limited-edition capsule titled 993 Aimé. The collection includes outerwear, retro football shirts adorned with Porsche and ALD co-branding, and a pair of co-branded New Balance sneakers—offering fans a tangible piece of the collaboration, even if they can’t get behind the wheel.
