Re-introducing a basketball legend. The return of the 550 pays tribute to the 1989 original that defined a hoops generation. Originally worn by pro ballers in the ’80s and ’90s, the new 550 is simple, clean and true to its legacy.
The New Balance 550 ‘White Green’ showcases a throwback hardwood design lifted directly from the brand’s late ‘80s archives.
White leather is utilized on the upper, featuring microperforated paneling and a tonal suede overlay that wraps around the toe.
Forest green accents make their way to the sneaker’s various branding elements, including a raised ‘N’ logo and an oversized tongue tag marked with ‘New Balance 550.’
The low-profile silhouette sits on a rubber cupsole with soft EVA cushioning.
