The collaboration between Comme des Garçons Homme and New Balance continues with the release of the 550 ‘Black’ model, which offers a classic yet modern style. Staying true to the minimalist aesthetic of the Japanese fashion label, this iteration of the vintage basketball shoe boasts a sleek two-tone design in black and white. Crafted with a layered leather upper, the shoe features a prominent ‘N’ logo in white, adding a touch of contrast. Notable branding from both CDGH and New Balance can be found on the heel overlay and sockliner, showcasing the prestigious partnership. For exceptional comfort, the sneaker is built with a rubber cupsole, incorporating an EVA wedge for lightweight cushioning.
