Chinese streetwear label ANB Brand will continue its fruitful partnership with New Balance into 2022, with first looks at a duo of ANB x New Balance 550 colorways coming to light earlier this week.
The brands are certainly “In It For the Long Run” — as stated on their collaborative branding — as the pair have dressed the likes of the 327 and 212, but with the 550, the partnership has reached a significant level. Focusing on a central theme of white, sail and teal blue, the two pairs proffer completely different looks; one drenched heavily in ocean hues, the other opting for classic white leathers. The former looks to suedes and mesh for its construct, whilst the other, save the heel nylon, arrives in all-white. Both rest atop a sail and light blue sole unit, with co-branded insoles and reimagined New Balance logos hitting the heel to complete the designs.
Though a release date for the pair has not yet been set, it is expected to arrive this Fall alongside a collection of apparel — likely to be an Asian exclusive.
Until then, enjoy a first teaser look at the two ANB x New Balance 550 colorways just below, and be sure to keep your eyes locked on our official Twitter account for further developments.
