The original 550 was launched in 1989 and left its mark on basketball courts across the country. After the first release, the 550 was archived before being reintroduced in a limited edition at the end of 2020. In 2021, it returned to the regular lineup and quickly became a global fashion favorite. The low, streamlined silhouette of the 550 is a clear nod to the robust design of the late '80s. The reliable upper made of leather, synthetic materials, and mesh gives it a timeless classic look.
