WMNS New Balance 550 "White Lilac" BBW550BV

The WMNS New Balance 550 “White Lilac” BBW550BV continues the enduring tradition of effortlessly combining functionality and style that is synonymous with the brand. Remaining faithful to its origins, this shoe showcases the iconic white leather construction adorned with perforated panels and mesh collars, establishing a solid base for its unique dual-tone aesthetic. Originating in 1989 and initially gaining popularity on basketball courts nationwide, the 550 underwent a period of hiatus before making a resurgence through limited-edition releases in late 2020 and a complete reintroduction in 2021, earning widespread recognition in the fashion world.

Its sleek and subtly low-profile design pays homage to the robust visual elements of the late 1980s, while the enduring mix of leather, synthetic materials, and mesh in the upper construction maintains an undeniably timeless appeal. The delicate lilac accents delicately contrast with the pristine white background, drawing attention to significant features like the midfoot N logo, collar detailing, branding, heel clips, and outsole edges. This understated yet captivating interplay of colours adds versatility to the sneaker, allowing it to seamlessly transition from casual outings to sophisticated social occasions. Bolstered by the lasting durability and traction of a rubber outsole, the WMNS New Balance BBW550BV epitomizes a harmonious fusion of heritage basketball-inspired design and contemporary, forward-looking fashion.
