New Balance 550 – Women's Angora / Copper

The New Balance 550 in Angora / Copper is a women's retro basketball low-top built on the 1989 original, available from Gallery Streetwear, a Tier 1 authorized New Balance retailer in Kelowna, BC that ships Canada-wide.

The 550 spent years in the New Balance archive before limited-edition releases in late 2020 returned it to the full-time line in 2021. The shape is pure late-'80s court: a low, streamlined profile, layered leather and synthetic panels, perforated venting at the sides and a substantial rubber cup sole.

Angora and copper give the pair a warm, muted palette that sits closer to neutral than the usual white-and-primary court colourways, so it reads easily with denim, wide trousers or knitwear.
