The New Balance BB550PWT is a revival of the iconic 1989 original 550, a shoe that left its footprint on basketball courts nationwide. After a period in the archives, the 550 resurfaced in late 2020 through limited-edition releases, reclaiming its status and expanding its appeal as a global fashion staple by 2021. This model's low-top, streamlined silhouette provides a refined contrast to the bulky designs typical of the late ‘80s, offering timeless style. Constructed with a leather upper, the 550 combines classic aesthetics with modern sensibilities, making it a versatile choice for any wardrobe.
