New Balance 550 White Green

Exact release: New Balance 550 White/Green, style BB550WT1. Released June 24, 2021, it combines a white leather base, grey suede toe wrap and green detailing in a color scheme connected to the model’s late-1980s basketball roots.

Construction and fit

The unisex upper combines leather, synthetic and mesh materials with a rubber outsole and lace closure. New Balance lists the model as fitting as expected for most people; buyers should still verify the men’s/women’s conversion shown by the retailer.

Release and price baseline

The documented US retail price was $120. Current resale prices depend on size and condition, so the original retail figure should not be confused with a live market quote.

Buyer checks

• Match BB550WT1 and the White/Green description.
• Verify unisex size conversion and the internal label.
• Inspect toe creasing, suede wear, collar lining, discoloration and outsole condition.
• Compare authentication, returns and total delivered price.
