Fresh off the release of exclusive colorways of six different adidas Originals sneakers and three New Balance 1000s, Foot Locker is back to drop more exclusives. This time, they’re working with the Boston-based label New Balance on the New Balance 9060 and two colors of the New Balance 550.
Helping promote the release is a campaign featuring Atlanta-based hip-hop duo Earthgang, whose members Olu and WowGr8 are pictured wearing the four different saturated colorways of the 9060 and 550. Starting with the 9060, which has become one of, if not the most popular sneaker from NB, we see a mixture of suede and mesh on the upper, with the suede paneling taking on deeply saturated shades of clementine and true red. These tones land on the overlays, while the base layer and sole unit take on cream hues to keep the design grounded.
For the 550s, two colorways are offered, one in Navy Electric Sky and another in Clay Melon Water. Both come with the same colorblocking, adding saturated suede panels to the mudguard, collar, and heel and placing perforated suede in a grey hue on the toebox and collar underlay. Smooth suede hits the midfoot panel, hosting a pebbled leather N logo trimmed in a contrasting shade. At the same time, we see perforated leather in a tonal finish applied to the lower eyelet overlay. Finishing both pairs is a tonal midsole and outsole.
The Foot Locker-exclusive New Balance Saturated Pack will release on March 20, 2025, through Foot Locker online and in-store. Available in various sizes, the retail price for the 9060 is set at $150 for adults and $110 for GS. The 550 will be released in men’s sizing for $120.
