While the New Balance 9060 has recently been giving it a run for its money, the New Balance 550 still stands as one of the most in demand models in 2024. Its seemingly unshakeable popularity means the Boston brand needs to keep churning out new looks, yet the latest in pine green & white strikes an all-too-familiar chord.

The wide mesh on the collar and tongue, along with the perforated leather at the quarter, still stand as the most striking material sections at play in the sneaker’s design. While those vintage aspects certainly stand on their own, this colorway leans harder in that retro direction, employing a gum sole underfoot along with the classic combo of white & green up top. Grey on the jagged suede mudguard provides a finishing touch of throwback appeal, as if the 550 ever needed help capturing that lane.

The New Balance 550 “Pine Green” is available now on NewBalance.com, retailing for $120. Below you can find direct links & official photos for a closer look at the edition at hand.
