New Balance 550 Washed Burgundy
THE DETAILS
Origin: The New Balance 550 emerged in 1989, conceived as the P550 Basketball Oxford, masterminded by Steven Smith; a low-top alternative to the 650. Initially, the model failed to resonate with the public, resulting in discontinuation; a fate many sneakers face. However, this was not the end of the story. Construction: The Washed Burgundy iteration of the 550 boasts a low-top profile, meticulously crafted with a paneled upper. This design incorporates white perforated leather, complemented by synthetic leather and breathable mesh elements. The materials converge, creating a harmonious blend of durability and aesthetic appeal. Utility: Primarily designed for casual wear, the New Balance 550 draws from its basketball heritage, delivering both style and functionality. It features a robust rubber outsole with a blocky tread pattern and a forefoot pivot point, ensuring reliable traction. Ortholite insoles provide exceptional comfort and moisture-wicking properties, ideal for daily use. Influence: The New Balance 550's resurgence is a testament to its enduring appeal and impact on street style. The collaboration with Aimé Leon Dore (ALD) in 2020 served as a pivotal moment, propelling the shoe into mainstream consciousness; a moment of undeniable influence. The 550, now a staple, has transcended its original basketball purpose, becoming a symbol of fashion-forward sensibilities; a status cemented by its presence within the sneakerhead community.
