The New Balance 550 has long since established itself as one of the most popular retro basketball sneakers. The new ‘Slate Grey’ edition features a high-quality material mix that gives the model a particularly sophisticated look.
The upper is made entirely of suede, with two different shades of grey being used. ‘Slate Grey’ dominates most of the panels, while “Castlerock” provides a subtle contrast on the toe box and collar. The logos on the sides, the tongue and the TPU heel clip are also in this darker shade of grey.
For a stylish balance, New Balance relies on a ‘Sea Salt’ midsole for a slightly aged look, while the ‘Slate Grey’ outsole completes the look.
