What's there not to love about the New Balance 550 "Natural Indigo?" One of the latest colorways to hit the '80s silhouette, this is no doubt one of our favorites of the entire year. Arriving with a premium look and feel, here's everything that you need to know about it, including materials, sizing, as well as release information.
Dropping the usual all-leather construction in favor of something a little more premium, this 550 is dressed from heel to toe in a natural indigo suede that's soft and supple to the touch. Smooth leather graces the heel and "N" logo in a matte finish, while sea salt laces tie everything together. A mesh tongue offers optimum ventilation, and speaking of which, this has been decorated with a newly-designed tongue tag that completely drops the usual basketball graphic for a simple logo design that we can't help but adore. All of this is lined with an off-white rubber outsole underfoot which offers a vintage vibe.
The New Balance 550 Natural Indigo releases November 1st, 2022 in men's sizes at New Balance and select retailers both online and in-store, worldwide. Retail is set at $120. If you plan to cop a pair make sure you go half a size up for the best fit possible. More colorways are expected to land very soon, so follow us on Twitter and download our officialMobile App for everything that you need to know and more.
