The New Balance 550 is arguably the breakout sneaker of the year, having quickly expanded upon its classic two-tone lineup with experimental colorways and collaborations. The latest offerings call back to the silhouette’s ’80s basketball roots with two Los Angeles Lakers-inspired gold and purple-toned colorways.

The two new offerings are found in a mix of smooth and perforated leather uppers and padded mesh collars with open-mesh tongue tabs arriving as an unconventional touch. Common themes for the sneakers include outlined N-logos across the sides, colored “550” embroidery, and light grey hits scattered throughout. Rounding out the designs are branded white rubber midsoles and two-toned non-marking outsoles.

Take an official look at the New Balance 550 Pack above and expect the pairs to release October 5 via New Balance and at select retailers for $110 USD.

Elsewhere in footwear, Nike Air Presto surfaces in “Tour Yellow.”
