The New Balance 550 Cream Black features a smooth white leather upper with perforated overlays, black piping, mesh collars, and cracked leather New Balance logos. At the tongue, a New Balance Basketball woven label adds a vintage feel. From there, a matching sole with court grip completes the design. Released in March of 2022 and retailed for $100. The New Balance 550 ‘Sea Salt’ gives the vintage hoops shoe a neutral makeover devoid of color. The upper is constructed from off-white leather with a signature ‘N’ logo in grey pebbled leather. The low-cut mesh collar is overlaid with black leather detailing, matching the molded heel clip and the Flying NB graphic stamped on the black heel. Anchoring the sneaker is a traditional rubber cupsole with aged sidewalls and an exposed EVA wedge on the medial side.
