Extremely disappointed. I LOVE the way these shoes look. On my first day of wearing it they began to crease slightly (as expected), but my right show creased in a way that every time I stepped foot it felt like I was being stabbed by my own shoe. It became unbearable to walk and it ruined my day. I got these as a birthday present that I can't even enjoy anymore.

Good fit and shipping, small QC issues regarding suede, glue and sew, nothing out of the ordinary that you wouldn’t find for mass produced shoes. Shipped relatively quick using USPS. No half sizes but fit 12 and 13s. Can’t complain with the discounted sale.

I love the colors and comfort. However, as i wore it today, the crease point where my toe resides get jammed every step i take.its so weird because i have no issue on my right foot. it was so bad i basically limped my way around.this is really unfortunate, i really like the color and comfort, but this is painful.

Sizing: first impression was "oops! They're to narrow, I should go half size up". But actually when I walk in them few minutes I changed my mind. Length wise they're perfect. And actually my foot lift out which is a bit annoying, so definitely it was a good decision go true to size. Half size down will be to tight. Shoes looks really nice, and this combo with green is a pure Perfection
I got these two weeks ago as I've wanted them since they came out and finally got them in my size on asos. They are lovely in person and were comfortable overall. Only thing is they are a little sore at the big toe joint due to the thicker leather just before the big toe which causes some creasing. Hoping it will ease off. Just different to the 530s which I can wear all day right away but that is as the 550s are full leather.
from all the ruckus online abt these shoes I thought they were gonna be the best sneakers i set my eyes on but theyre pretty mid. they look kinda ugly from the top. Also idk if its maybe because I just have small feet (eu 39??) but they looked really small, felt small too. Anyhow might just be a personal preference lol.
Considering these trainers are normally £120 - they aren’t the most comfortable. I’m pleased I got them at a reduced cost. That’s why ASOS is so good! Nice stylish trainers but are hard on the feet
These are nice looking shoes, the color way I was looking for. They definitely need to be broken in a bit and I suspect they will not be as comfortable as some of my other new balance but they are still good. My biggest complaint and what I want others to know is these are BB550 not the regular 550. The main difference I think is the toebox is/looks longer then the regular. I am keeping them because I can’t find the color way in the regular right now but it is something to know!
I was really excited for this shoe to arrive, I love the colorway. I suppose i should have looked into it.Every time I walk the crease point jams into the part where my big toe bends, and causes so much pain I pretty much limped my way today.It's so weird because this happens to my left foot but my right foot is fine. Its really comfortable compared to what I've worn, but I cant wear this.
Entered size 12 on website, but printed invoice and shoes arrived in size 11. Couldn’t fit, then once returned I was charged for whatever reason. The fact that you can’t exchange sizes, and you charge people for returned items is terrible business. Will never be purchasing again.
