New Balance 550 White Burgundy

Design inspired by basketball archives

The New Balance 550 White Burgundy model harks back to the original design principles of the 550 series from the 80s, maintaining a low-profile silhouette and proportions typical of basketball footwear from that era. These shoes were designed for urban use while retaining their sporting DNA.

Leather upper with contrasting details

The upper features smooth genuine leather in white, complemented by perforated panels for better breathability. Burgundy accents placed on the "N" logo, tongue, and heel counter provide a distinct yet cohesive counterpoint to the neutral base. The visual details were chosen with a balance of form and color in mind.

Sole built on foam cushioning

The shoes are equipped with an EVA foam midsole, which provides a basic level of cushioning and comfort while walking. The rubber outsole ensures durability and good traction on paved surfaces. The sole layout was borrowed from training models, providing added stability.

Versatile colorway with a bold accent

The combination of white and dark burgundy creates an aesthetic that is easy to style without losing the model's distinct identity. This color palette pairs well with everyday clothing, both in neutral and contrasting outfits. The "White Burgundy" colorway is subtle but not lacking in character.
