The original 550 was launched in 1989 and left its mark on basketball courts across the country. After the first run, the 550 was shelved in the archives before being reintroduced as a limited edition at the end of 2020. In 2021, it returned to the regular range and quickly became a global fashion favorite. The low, streamlined silhouette of the 550 is a clear nod to the rugged design of the late 80s, while the durable synthetic leather upper is a classic look for any era.
