New Balance is back again with another take on its highly-coveted 550 silhouette. After making waves in the sneaker scene last year, the Boston-based sportswear brand is reimagining it in a ‘triple black’ colourway. The monochromatic uppers are crafted from supple leather and fitted with a tonal rubber outsole, complete with perforated details at the mudguard and a soft mesh tongue. Signature style codes make an appearance, too, in the form of ‘N’ Branding at the side wall and heel. Leather Uppers, Rubber Outsole. The New Balance 550 Triple Black, made out of a combination of leather and mesh, comes in an all-black color theme. The smooth leather covers the upper while the mesh is maintained at the tongue and collar.The black tone also extends to the sole unit, insoles, laces, and lining. Branding elements for the sneaker include a tag on the tongue, the "N" symbol patches on the sides, a protruding "new balance" logo on the accented grey midsole, and a signature symbol at the rear. The midsole is made from EVA foam for cushioning.Voltamos a apresentar uma lenda do basquetebol. O regresso dos 550 presta homenagem aos originais de 1989 que definiram uma geração de jogos de basquetebol. Originalmente usados por profissionais nos anos 80 e 90, os novos 550 são simples, sóbrios e fiéis ao seu legado.
