Versatility has been the hallmark of many of New Balance’s successful launches. A key contributor to this all-roundedness has been the New Balance 550. The low-top sneaker, with its often mixed material upper, offers a look that can be dressed up and down while landing at a more affordable price point compared to other New Balance styles. Continuing this trend, the New Balance 550 now arrives in two versatile presentations of “Indigo” and “Gray.”

Each pair is composed of a premium suede, mesh and leather on the upper with a plain sole unit featuring a white branded midsole and off-white rubber outsole. The “Indigo” colorway favors its signature blue throughout the upper, including on the “N” logo and 550 branding that both carry a “Sea Salt” outline that matches the off-white hue’s contributions at the heel, tongue and laces. In “Gray” these “Sea Salt” hits return alongside an almost entirely grayed-out upper.

Release details for both of these upcoming New Balance 550 colorways have not yet been announced by the brand. However, look for them to hit shelves in the coming months via New Balance and select retailers at a price of $110 USD.

In other footwear news, Aimé Leon Dore has revealed its upcoming collaborative New Balance 650R releases, including “Green,” “Navy” and “Gray” looks.
