New Balance Womens 550

Step out in crisp, inspired style with the New Balance 550 in White, carrying off some heritage NB details and design on a comfy, dependable leather upper with hits of mesh.
The New Balance 550 revisits an 80’s New Balance classic design, showing off the same design elements and standout N logo on modern leather materials for easy-wearing comfort and b-ball style. Perforations and hits of mesh around the ankles and on the collar all help your feet breathe throughout your day, while a reliable rubber cupsole helps hold you in place and provides grippy traction. Lace-up fastening allows you to customise the fit to find your perfect feel.

New Balance

Founded by William J. Riley in 1906, New Balance started small, producing highly flexible, three-point arch supports for those that suffered discomfort wearing shoes, all inspired by the daily balancing acts performed by Williams’ own backyard chickens as they nimbly navigated the coop. Chasing supportive, innovative comfort from the moment it was born over a century ago, New Balance would become a sporting shoe manufacturer of import among both athletes and basketballers, loved for its specialist footwear.

Rolling on to 1972, under new owner Jim Davis, New Balance foresaw a shift in the market. Hoping to ride the wave of casual style and streetwear, they began a push for leisure time products and comfy, all-day pieces that would eventually be sought-after from coast to coast and beyond, all renowned for their quality and comfort. From retro-inspired icons such as the 327 and 420 to the newer Fresh Foam cushioning technology pieces of today, New Balance has never stopped developing and has a deep collection of classic leather and suede silhouettes that will always look and feel superb.

550

Basketball is engrained deeply in the history of New Balance, and few shoes embody this inspiration greater than the 550. Designed by the legendary Steven Smith, the 550 built upon its b-ball focused predecessors the 480 and 650, bringing exaggerated lines inspired by 90s graffiti, all on a stable heel and responsive, updated traction. Fast-forward to 2018, and, after a period of obscurity for the 550, it finally catches the attention of nostalgia icon Teddy Santis and his Aime Leon Dore label, sparking new interest in this venerable piece. Refreshed and remade for a more appreciative age, remastered 550 shoes debuted in 2020, continuing to ride the wave of 90s inspiration with new colourways and releases.

New Balance 550

A sleek retro inspired sneaker that combines basketball aesthetics to modern everyday wear style. New Balances’ 550 drop uses a simplistic design that makes it a core on foot essential. Featuring an understated yet stylish design, the 550 complements a wide range of outfits, from casual jeans to streetwear. With a cushioned midsole and supportive foot bed, providing all-day comfort whether you're active or relaxing. The New Balance 550 sports a vintage basketball-inspired design, featuring a clean leather upper
