New Balance 550 White Cobalt

Cobalt on white leather

The New Balance 550 is a low-top silhouette born from 80s basketball, featuring a flat rubber sole, a distinct side panel, and a large N logo on the quarter. The White Cobalt version keeps the entire shoe in white, with a leather upper featuring perforation fields for ventilation, while cobalt appears as accents: on the panel, the logo, and parts of the sole. The interior is textile-lined, and the lace-up closure allows for precise adjustment. The cobalt is darker and more saturated than a typical athletic blue, giving the pair a calmer look than the name might suggest.

How to choose your size

This shoe has a narrow, flat fit, with stiff leather that softens after a few days of wear. If you have a wider foot or a high instep, go half a size up; for a standard foot, stick to your usual size. The size range runs from 36 to 46.5 and includes many half sizes. The most reliable method is to measure your foot and compare the result with the size chart instead of converting a size from another brand. Selected pairs can be tried on at our partner store, SneakersJoint in Wrocław, Odrzańska 15.

How to style them

A white shoe with a single bold color is the easiest sneaker to wear. Straight jeans, gray sweatpants, black work pants: everything works, as the cobalt is dark enough not to be overwhelming. If you want to highlight the color, just one accessory in the same tone is enough to complete the outfit. Other colorways of this model are gathered in the New Balance 550 Shoes collection, a wider selection of the brand's silhouettes can be found in the New Balance Shoes section, and new deliveries arrive first in New Arrivals.
