The number 550 of the New Balance is a model created in 1989 reintroduced on the market with many colors and ultra modern details. The vintage style of the sneaker is not lost but stands out on the midsole with a deliberately yellowed effect. The upper has a low construction defined by a smooth, perforated leather base with lightweight, breathable fabric overlays on the collar and tongue.

This color variant plays with the contrast between the dominant black and red details, such as those of the "N" in relief on the profiles, of the New Balance logo on the heel and the serial number 550, up to the details of the label sewn on the tongue. Finally, the durable rubber tread includes both colors.
