Designed by Steven Smith, the New Balance 550, initially launched in 1989 as an alternative to the New Balance 650, was primarily tailored for basketball players seeking a low-top footwear option optimized for on-court performance. This shoe distinguishes itself with a robust leather upper and incorporates an ENCAP cushioning system for exceptional durability and comfort. For the brand’s significant female demographic, the “Washed Burgundy” BBW550DP in New Balance 550 is an enticing choice.
The majority of the leather upper boasts a neutral color palette, allowing the various branding elements and supporting details to pop in shades of red and pink. The design includes a white perforated leather upper to enhance breathability, complemented by contrasting pink accents. You’ll find Washed Burgundy highlights on the mesh collars, puffed “N” side logos, inner lining, 550 numbering, tongue, heel branding, and a portion of the heel counter. To tie it all together, the look is finished with a solid white rubber sole.
