Part of New Balance's "Reimagined" concept, the New Balance 550 Vintage 'Brown' is available in three distinct colorways. The tongue, heel collar, sole, and N logo on the side panel all mirror the shoe's brown embellishments and white leather basis of the New Balance 550 Vintage. The prominent feature of this shoe is its aged appearance, which is a result of the worn-out, grimy bottoms and the flaking paint on the N emblem.
