What We’re Saying: We can’t get enough of the 550.

When New Balance brought back its 550 last year, the archival silhouette was an unexpected hit. Launched initially as part of Aimé Leon Dore’s FW20 collection, the archival performance basketball sneaker was immediately plastered all over Instagram. It’s not an understatement to say you couldn’t scroll through your feed without seeing the 550 on it.

Now Size? has unveiled official release information for its exclusive “College Pack” colorway of the silhouette. The colorway features the retailer’s signature orange hue on the “N” logo, tongue, heel, and parts of the mid-and outsoles. A vintage-looking cream/white base underpins the vintage aesthetic.

An orange 574 joins the fray, too, taking on a much more eye-catching color scheme by pairing a hairy orange suede base with white accents on the “N” logo, sock liner, and midsole.

Both sneakers drop on July 9 alongside a 13-piece Ivy Americana-inspired capsule collection. Head to Size? for more information.
