New Balance continues to provide fans of the 550 with a widely available selection, keeping the momentum behind the Boston brand’s most popular lifestyle model very much alive as we dip into the new year.

A new delivery wears NB Navy and Quarry Blue accents over white leather, adhering mostly to the 550’s OG color blocking we’re accustomed to seeing on some of its most popular inline and collaborative efforts. In this makeup, New Balance offers a same-but-different alternative to the Navy Aime Leon Dore 550s that brought the model to market in 2020.

No details about a stateside release have been made available, but see images below for a closer look as we stay current.

If you’re a fan of bluescale sneakers but want a little something extra material-wise, check out the recently unveiled New Balance 550 Patent Leather pack as it includes a UNC-esque colorway.
