New Balance 550Black Gum White

Product Description

The New Balance 550 Black Gum White channels a retro basketball feel from the 80s and boasts a black, gum, and white color combination.

The original New Balance 550 debuted in 1989 and was reintroduced with great fanfare and numerous colorways. This particular colorway features a tonal black upper that is made out of premium suede and leather. The suede appears on the toe guard and the heel counter, looking a bit distressed and giving the shoe a bit of edge. New Balance branding hits include the original capital letter ‘N’ on the side panels, with other NB branding on the midsole, heel tab, and tongue. You’ll spot 550 in white on the lateral eyestay.

What we love about this shoe is its nod to the heavy basketball footwear designs of the past, yet it presents a fresh, streamlined aesthetic. This lends to its versatility as a being a performance shoe for on the court or a lifestyle shoe for athleisure looks. The New Balance 550 Black Gum White debuted on November 1, 2022, and sold at retail price of $120.
