New Balance 550 Concrete BB550VNB

Understated, retro, and sophisticated, that's New Balance's 550 lineup for all the sneakerheads! Aimé Leon Dore, the founder of Teddy Santis, has reintroduced the sneaker with a collection flaunting visually appealing aesthetics. Meet the newest to enter the roster, the New Balance 550 Concrete!

Have a look at the kicks enjoying an all-grey suede construction for its upper! Besides, mini perforations appear on the sides for added breathability and details! Adding to the monotone aesthetic is a lightweight tongue that follows suit for the colourway!

However, every shade needs its contrast to shine. To do so, white adds to the palate as it dresses the puffy white "N" branding and a "550" label! Besides, the laces sitting atop the tongue indulge in the contrasting white to put the look together. White hits grace the silhouette by appearing on the heel, where we spot an off-white textile pop-up and synthetic heel clip. Lastly, a durable rubber outsole caps off the look of the shoes.

Mid-wash jeans and a pop of colour on the top; rock these understated beauties with a fit that oozes warm, rich tones. Grey and brown are best buddies regarding styling, so mix them up for a look that will have the crowd talking!

The New Balance 550 Concrete is now available. Grab yourself a pair from the shops of the top UK and European retailers listed in our where to buy section. Find out what's on the recent news in the sneaker business by following us on Facebook and Twitter.
