The New Balance 550 has skyrocketed up the popularity rankings recently and we know that this trajectory isn't slowing down any time soon, especially given this recently unveiled UNC-inspired iteration. The classic sky-blue hue intersperses the crisp-white leather upper, including around the large 'N' logo on the sidewalls and the 550 branding at the bottom of the lace unit.
A springy, rubber outsole adds traction and grip, for both on and off the court, whilst the addition of perforations across the medial and lateral sidewalls adds breathability. Cushioning around the ankle results in a low-top NB that is as comfortable as it is stylish, and thanks to the baby-blue colour scheme, we know that this is going to go with everything in our wardrobe. Definitely a worthwhile investment and addition to your rotation this A/W.
Additional New Balance branding can be spied at the top of the tongue, as well as on the vintage-toned, sail midsole. Both charcoal and blue can be found underfoot, providing some contrast on this icy sneaker. We didn't know we could love the New Balance 550 silhouette any more than we did, but turns out it certainly is possible.
