The COMME des GARÇONS x New Balance 550 "Black" is Coming Soon

GARÇONS HOMME x New Balance 550 "Black"

The New Balance 550 has got to be one of the most popular sneakers of 2022. Originally released all the way back in the '80s during the height of the basketball boom, it was brought back 40 years later in 2020, and it has since become one of the most sought-after silhouettes ever. Perfectly fusing the model's retro styling with a selection of delectable leathers, if you don't have a pair in your daily collection, you're honestly missing out. With that said, if you could only cop one, you might want to consider the upcoming COMME des GARÇONS x New Balance 550 "Black" that's scheduled to be dropping soon.

Offered in a monochromatic colour scheme that bears a striking resemblance to the "Cream White," Rei Kawakubo's take on the vintage model is outfitted with premium leather throughout. Crisp white accents venture towards the collar and "550" branding, while the old school basketball graphic can be found on the tongue tag just like the OG.

Of course, you can't talk about this coveted collab without mentioning the CdGH x New Balance co-branding that adorns the heel and insole. Clean and simple, this reminds everyone that this isn't just any old 550.

Rumoured to be releasing sometime in October, if you miss out, don't worry, as the COMME des GARÇONS HOMME x New Balance 550 "Black" will be available at Ox Street very soon. While you're here, make sure you take a sneak peek at the JJJJound x New Balance 991!
