NEW BALANCE BB550WTG 'WHITE/CASTLEROCK'
The latest iteration to join the popular New Balance 550 line up is a clean ‘White/Grey’ colorway. Sticking to the two-tone color blocking that the silhouette often sports, the darker shade accentuates details such as the puffy ‘N’ logos, tongue labels, ankle and outsole. White then fills in the rest, taking over the mix of smooth and perforated leather panels along with the midsoles.

Returning as a 3 (three) Part launch, the New Balance unveils its latest set of their ultra-popular 550 model sneakers. This time around, featuring subtly collegiate basketball-inspired colorways, the BB550 series expands into three all-new colorways, once again upon a White leather/suede base.

NEW BALANCE BB550 CANARY YELLOW / MAROON / BLACK
Since its revival last year by Teddy Santis and his fashion imprint 'Aimé Leon Dore', the New Balance 550 silhouette has regained much of its popularity for its vintage basketball aesthetic. With much international attention under the spotlight, the brand continues to play with new colorways and interpretations of the classic retro model this 2021 Summer Season.
Three new colorways start off dressed primarily in a classic white leather styling with contrasting overlays along the side logo, outsole, collar and tongue. The first plays with a brighter 'Canary Yellow' hue, a bit more bold than the other two muted releases. The second, sees the same colored panels as the former, this time in a washed vintage sportswear-inspired 'Maroon' burgundy. Finally, the most simple of the trio, a Black iteration sticks with a darker neutral contrast. The BB550 silhouette also utilizes suede along the toebox for added texture in a slightly greyish tone for a vintage feel.
