New Balance's multiverse of Miu Miu moments is expanding. As it stands, New Balance's 204L sneaker has become the brand's unofficial in-house Miu Miu sneaker.

While not an official collaboration, because we have plenty of those, the New Balance 204L sneaker has the slim, low-profile associated with various Miu Miu x New Balance shoe collaborations like the 530 and 574.

And even though this style of sneaker has been orbiting the dad shoe ether for a while, this all-white "Linen" colorway still looks fresh. Light on feet and easy on the eyes, the 204L sneaker is a breath of fresh linen air.

The light linen sneaker joins an equally elderly lineup of 204L sneakers, including a stony beige colorway that mirrors the neutral vibe of the Miu Miu New Balance 530 mules.

Recently, Kith released a beautiful bouquet of colorful New Balance 204L sneakers that teeter on the brink of a beautiful dad shoe and full-on fruit basket.

The 204L sneakers are so captivating that even Rosalía had to take the sleek dad shoes out for a spin. 

New Balance's new "Linen" colorway, available on the New Balance website on August 13 for $110, are only further proof of a simple truth.

Whether vibrant or muted, no one can resist the allure of a super slim dad shoe.
