New Balance is presenting a new teal and purple colorway palette to join its roster, seen adorning the signature 550 sneaker model. It channels Spring energy with the tones and starts off with a white leather base foundation. There are perforated details at the toe box and medial sides of the shoe.
The toe box has a tilted cut and the heel counters are detailed with teal blue suede. Right above this is a touch of purple mesh that travels to the lining along with bright pink leather trimmings that detail the ankles. Branding can be seen throughout in the form of the creamy tonal N logo at the quarters and the pink NB lettering at the back of the shoe.
