Following the unveiling of its collegiate-colored “Syracuse” orange and “UNC” blue takes earlier this month, New Balance reveals a clean and simple black and white version of its popular 550 sneakers.

The retro basketball shoes are dressed in layers of smooth and perforated white leathers, with a suede mudguard on the toe section and cushioned mesh accents adorning the collars. The laterals feature an “N” logo with double-stitched outlines and “550” block text below the front eyelets. Additional details include a New Balance basketball-inspired logo on the tongue tab and a classic NB logo on the heel counter. Below, a white midsole is elevated by a black rubber outsole to complete the look.

Look for the New Balance 550 “Black/White” to release for $110 USD in the coming weeks on the New Balance website and at select retailers.
