The New Balance 550 Black/White is a clean and simple two-tone colorway of the vintage basketball and lifestyle shoe that can be worn with virtually anything. The New Balance 550 was unearthed by New York based clothing brand Aime Leon Dore in 2020 and has since become one of New Balances most popular styles, and its easy to see why on the Black/White. Both comfortable and timelessly designed, the 550 in Black/White features a white leather base with tonal perforated leather overlays on the forefoot and mid-panel. A white N logo appears on either side of the shoe and black 550 branding is embroidered on the forefoot. A classic black NB logo is printed on the heel. Additional old school-inspired New Balance branding is located on the tongue tag. The white rubber midsole features New Balance and 550 detailing on the lateral side. A black outsole completes the look. Release date: November 30, 2021 White / Black
