The original New Balance 550 debuted in 1989 and made its mark on basketball courts from coast to coast. After its initial run, the 550 was filed away in the archives, before being reintroduced in limited-edition releases in late 2020, and returned to the full-time lineup in 2021, quickly becoming a global fashion favourite.
The 550’s low top, streamlined silhouette offers a clean take on the heavy-duty designs of the late ‘80s, while the dependable leather upper construction is a classic look in any era.
Perfect form for all occasions, the 550 in essential neutrals features a classic, white leather upper and distressed details for a lived-in appearance.
Available at all New Balance experience stores from 3 August.
