The New Balance 550 “Sea Salt” is a versatile, go-anywhere colorway of the vintage basketball shoe by the Boston footwear company. Brought back by Aimé Leon Dore and New Balance in 2020, the New Balance 550 is among the most popular sneakers in the world. The neutral-based “Sea Salt” colorway features a white leather upper with tonal and black leather overlays. A cream-colored “N” logo appears on both sides of the shoe. Black outline “550” branding is found on the forefoot. Additional branding includes an “NB” logo on the heel, and retro-inspired “New Balance 550 USA” detailing on the tongue. Underfoot, a chunky white rubber midsole is contrasted with a grey and black outsole.
