New Balance 550 "Strawberry Sundae" Coming Soon

Drawing inspiration from the sweet allure of desserts, New Balance introduces its latest ladies-exclusive model, the New Balance 550 "Strawberry Sundae," just in time for fall.

The influence of culinary delights on footwear design is nothing new. Everything from "Neapolitan" colorways to Ben and Jerry's SB Dunks showcases how flavors can lifestyle into fashion. The "Strawberry Sundae" iteration sweetly aligns with this delicious trend.

This New Balance 550 is designed to mimic the beloved dessert, starting with a base of fine cream suede that sets a soft, premium foundation. The sneaker then packs a vibrant punch with shaggy overlays in Pink Granite, reminiscent of the rich strawberry topping of its namesake. Complementary blue-grey accents adorn the brand markings and heel clip, adding a subtle contrast that enhances the overall aesthetic. The design is completed with a sole unit that mixes "Sea Salt" and "Linen" shades.

While the New Balance 550 "Strawberry Sundae" is already hitting shelves in select global markets, those in the United States must stay tuned for an official release announcement from New Balance. Until then, you can enjoy the official images of the design below.
