The New Balance 550 has become a focal point for the Boston-based brand as of late. The heritage-inspired basketball low top has been at the front of this year’s sneaker releases from Aimé Leon Dore collab to general release colorways.
Now, Rich Paul, the co-founder of Klutch Sports, is getting his own New Balance 550. It’s not every day you see a sports agent co-founder get his own sneaker. But, if anyone were to get one, it had to be Rich Paul.
The upcoming colorway encompasses an aged look as a sail upper is paired with a yellowed “N” logo and tongue. A burst of blue appears on the shoe as a UNC-like blue and a deep navy color combination adorns the rest of the low-top. The pair is packaged in a commemorative box for an even more elegant look.
The Rich Paul x New Balance 550 and coinciding apparel collection releases on NewBalance.com and select retailers on December 10. As always, our sneaker monitors and release day strategy will have members ready for drop day.
