New Balance is expanding its 550 lineup for 2023 with a release of a new upcoming colorway, “Royal Toe.”

The most recent offering sees the titular basketball low-top silhouette features a white leather and mesh upper. This time, royal blue hues are used for the leathe rand suede overlays seen on the toe box, heel and collar of the shoe. With perfroations on the sides, the classic “N” logo on the lateral is highlighted in the same blue, as was the signature “NB” branding on the tongue. The shoe sits atop a sail and royal blue midsole and outsole to round out the design.

Take a look at the New Balance 550 “Royal Toe” releasing in the coming months at select retailers and on New Balance for $110 USD.
