NEW BALANCE 550

The original 550 debuted in 1989 and made its mark on basketball courts from coast to coast. After its initial run, the 550 was filed away in the archives, before being reintroduced in limited-edition releases in late 2020, and returned to the full-time lineup in 2021, quickly becoming a global fashion favorite. The 550’s low top, streamlined silhouette offers a clean take on the heavy-duty designs of the late ‘80s, while the dependable suede and mesh upper construction is a classic look in any era.

• Suede/mesh upper 
• Rubber outsole for traction and durability

Use a light bristle brush (an old toothbrush works well) and a mild detergent (either dishwashing or laundry)
Be sure to use a detergent free of dye to avoid staining
We recommend spot check with the detergent to ensure no staining will occur
Scrub the shoes with the brush and use a damp cloth to wipe clean
Allow the shoes to thoroughly air dry for 24 hours
To eliminate and prevent shoe odor, use a shoe deodorizer spray
Putting shoes through a washing machine cycle is NOT recommended, as some shoe materials should not be exposed to heat or submerged in water.
