New Balance Sea Salt/Tobacco

In preparation for Summer, New Balance has added several new colorways to the 550, many of which have incorporated “Sea Salt” in a major way. This is also true of this latest women’s exclusive, which pairs said neutral with a hint of orange.

For the warmer season, New Balance has kept it simple with the 550’s design, beginning multiple pairs in much the same way. Here, “Sea Salt” is used throughout the shoe’s base, complemented not only by white leathers but also off-white and dark tan suedes. Hits of burnt orange, then, round out the colorway, highlighting the “N” logo, the branding along the tongue, and many of the adjacent trims.
